Retweet of the Day - August 16, 2013

Alex Rodriguez is like the gift that keeps on giving to sports journalists, broadcasters, and bloggers. The traditionally slow summer sports news cycle has been a little fast because of him and all of the sensational twists involving Rodriguez and the MLB investigation into performance enhancing drugs (P.E.D.s) distributed by the now closed Biogenesis anti-aging clinic. Now, in addition to being a juicer, A-Rod is allegedly a rat.

ESPN reported that a 60 Minutes report will claim that Rodriguez's associates leaked information to Yahoo! Sports this past winter that implicated Milwaukee Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun (.298, 9 HR, 38 RBI) and Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli (.269, 3 HR, 8 RBI, 17 GP), his teammate. Both of those players are serving suspensions for their involvements with Biogenesis.

His teammate? That would be pretty low. Through his attorneys, Rodriguez is denying the allegations. Still, the public isn't holding its breath regarding Rodriguez's integrity.

Today's retweet is from Peyton's Head (‏@PeytonsHead):

"Has A-Rod never heard the saying "Snitches get stitches"?"

He didn't even rat out Jason Varitek (right, whipping A-Rod's ass). Could you imagine what his own teammate might do?
