Dost The A-Horse's Power Returneth?



That's video of Alex Rodriguez homering in his Double-A rehab game last night, courtesy of Josh Norris.  Was that a little pimpage I detected at the plate after the initial contact??  I think it was.  If so, that's a really good sign.  It's been a lot of GB outs and little pop for A-Rod since he started his rehab assignment a few weeks ago.  With just a few days remaining until his time is up, it's good to not only see him hit a ball deep and over the fence but know off the bat that it's gone.

We haven't heard many details about how his hip has been feeling since he started playing again.  Maybe this is a sign that it's feeling good and A-Rod has confidence in it now.  The Yankees need right-handed power in the absolute worsest of worst ways, and as long as MLB hasn't officially stuck it to him that power might as well come from The Horse.
