ToTO: A-Rod asked again to prove if he's really a Yankee

By 'Duk

Five quick links to start your day ... 

1. "... While we're at it, let's see how much game Alex Rodriguez will bring to his first playoff run since he signed for the $300 million. If he really is going to be the kind of big Yankee he desperately wants to be, now would be a good time to start. Let's see him carry a Yankee team into September and through September the way he did in the spring of '07."

Yeah, it's Mike Lupica. But I love ultimatum columns. And what better reason to lay down an ultimatum than what could possibly be the last Red Sox-Yankees series at Yankee Stadium? [NY Daily News]

2. In honor of that Red Sox-Yankees series that starts today, Red and Denton debate and discuss their most-hated Yankees of all-time. My list begins and ends with Luis Sojo. (Hey, I have my reasons.) [Surviving Grady]

3. Grady Sizemore just learned that becoming part of the 30/30 Club is more or less like becoming a Mason. Here's the "letter" he just received from Barry Larkin. [Dave Burba Revolution]

4. "Joe Torre (supposedly) has a blog. And we don't care. Why? Because baseball players treat blogs like new girlfriends: lots of attention at first, then nothing." [Sons of Steve Garvey]

5. Speaking of hot new girlfriends, ESPN appears to have found one of its own: Surprise! It's the Tampa Bay Rays! Welcome to the bandwagon, Worldwide Leader. You can sit over there with David Brown. [Biz of Baseball]
