| News: Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with three singles in Tuesday's loss to the Angels. | Impact: Rodriguez's numbers are actually getting closer to where we're used to seeing them as his batting average and on-base percentage have climbed to .287 and .372, respectively. However, as evidenced by his three-single game on Tuesday, he is continuing to struggle to hit for power. He has only seven homers and 19 RBI on the season and sports a slugging percentage of only .431.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Rodriguez rocketed home runs in his first two at-bats Wednesday, finishing 2-for-4 with two runs and three RBI as the Yankees took care of the Royals. | Impact: Through 22 games in May, Rodriguez is batting .329/.396/.549 with five homers, though his 19:8 K:BB ratio implies he could see some regression in the near future. Nonetheless, he ended a 14-game homerless streak, while at the same time drilling multiple dingers for the first time this season, which should inspire confidence in fantasy owners.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Rodriguez singled and doubled Monday in a 6-0 loss to KC. | Impact: Make that one RBI in 13 games for A-Rod now. He should not be a major fantasy option.(STATS, 5:14pm) |

| News: Rodriguez is not in the lineup on Thursday against Toronto, Rogers Broadcasting's Mike Wilner reports. | Impact: This is probably just a regularly scheduled off day for Rodriguez, something that manager Joe Girardi makes sure to do for all of his older players. Rodriguez is having an odd month of May, as his on-base percentage is actually higher than his slugging percentage. He is drawing walks and hitting lots of singles, but only has two extra-base hits so far this month. Rodriguez should be back in the lineup on Friday.(RotoWire, ) |
