Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez will hold off on having surgery on his torn labrum and cyst from his right hip.
There had been talks originally that he would be out 10-12 weeks after surgery had finished. However, with rest and rehab players have played through this injury before. It looks as if A-Rod will attempt to do the same now.
The development also means that A-Rod will not be able to participate with the Dominican Republic team in the World Baseball Classic.
Rodriguez felt tightness in his right hip this spring and was examined by team physician Dr. Chris Ahmad on Saturday and an MRI exam revealed the cyst.
