Alex Rodriguez believes that he and his legal team have scored a big win over MLB at the arbitration hearing over his 211 game suspension.
In speaking to ESPN, “We crushed it,” Rodriguez said. “They had nothing.”
“Now that it’s over, as far as the state of the case, how the evidence went in, how my team challenged it, I feel great,” Rodriguez said. “The only thing that concerns me is the process.”
Jodan Siev, one of Rodriguez’s attorneys went on to say, “I firmly believe Alex should get a goose egg here, but … do I think he would have the courage to give him a goose egg? I’d like to think so, but I frankly can’t imagine Alex walks out of there with nothing.”
The decision of arbitrator Fredric Horowitz is expected to come sometime in January.
It is widely expected that if the decision does not go in A-Rod’s favor, he will challenge it in Federal Court and ask for an injunction to stay his suspension.
