Affirming his status as a True Yankee by taking the cash over any other considerations…

Alex Rodriguez’s only World Series ring is up for auction, although Rodriguez himself is not the one who consigned it.

As 1010 WINS’ Gene Michaels reported, Rodriguez’s 2009 World Series ring is not being sold by the Yankees third baseman himself, but by an auctioneer who bought it from his cousin, Yuri Sucart – the man A-Rod said convinced him to use steroids.

This could be the greatest collectors' item since the stamp with the upside-down biplane on it.

No wonder Roy has never won a Gold Glove Award.

Even stranger for a supposed Halladay likeness, the bobblehead is smiling.

Yeah, he looks more like Lowell Mather than Roy Halladay.

In the entire history of bobbleheads, has one ever actually looked like the person being depicted?

Only one.

Maybe he's about to fake out Jimmy Rollins and flatten him with a wrong-handed pitch between the eyes.

Only one.

I thought you were going to go in this direction.

I can't look at Roy Halladay without thinking he look like Chris Elliott.

I thought they did a good job with this bobblehead. Almost human!

There's something about the Halladay prototype of face. In addition to Elliott you've got...

Jarrod Washburn
Ben Zobrist
and
Mike Carp

Maybe all white people look the same to me, but those guys all seem to share a common ancestry.

I can't believe no one went here.

Somehow, none of 6, 8 or 13 were Madeleine Albright bobbleheads.

ha, they didn't even really make him lefty - he's just going to throw the glove to home

Halladay could've pitched left-handed, if he wanted to.

Yeah! That's why it looks so weird.

either that or he's a lefty and his head is on backwards.

I wonder what kind of spin would be imparted by wearing the glove on the pitching hand.
