No wonder he can't hit his 600th home run! He's busy litigating!
There's probably no danger of anyone involved screwing A-Rod out of his deferred dough, but if you don't object now, you can't object later if things go sideways.
Alex Rodriguez on Wednesday filed an objection over how the Rangers' bankruptcy auction might be held, fearing that bidders won't pledge to make good on deferred payments to him and several other former team players.Rodriguez is not alone here: lots of unsecured creditors filed objections because the Greenberg/Ryan deal already provides for them being paid and the assurances of that from the other bidders are less concrete.
On deadline for such filings before the Aug. 4 auction, an attorney for A-Rod noted that the Yankees third baseman is owed $24.89 million and complained that Hicks Sports Group, the team's parent, had failed to fund a $45 million escrow account for such deferred compensation, as required by Major League Baseball.
There's probably no danger of anyone involved screwing A-Rod out of his deferred dough, but if you don't object now, you can't object later if things go sideways.
