Gammons unhappy with A-Rod’s timing (ESPN) As we mentioned earlier in The Snooze , the timing of Alex Rodriguez’s decision to opt out of his contract was quite curious (it was in the middle of Game 4 of the World Series when FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal jumped in with the news). ESPN baseball analyst Peter Gammons agreed with us: why make the decision public during the World Series? He has 10-days after the Fall Classic to opt out of the remaining $91 million due to him. After discussing the list of suitors for his services, Gammons fired his shot:“What’s unfortunate here is the total disrespect for the game of baseball.  This is the World Series. ...

Peter Gammons Calls Out Alex Rodriguez
