Yankees GM: I don't want to talk about A-Rod anymore

Brian Cashman has had enough.

After fielding countless questions about his team's embattled third baseman in recent days, the New York Yankees general manager told Brendan Kuty of the Star-Ledger on Thursday he doesn't want to talk about Alex Rodriguez anymore.

Cashman insisted that relations aren't awkward between him and Rodriguez, who arrived at his team's spring training facility in Tampa a few days early, and emphasized that he would prefer to stop repeating his sentiments about the 39-year-old.

The beleaguered executive confirmed Rodriguez will be on the 25-man roster this season while noting the 14-time All-Star has performed pretty much as expected through the first few days of spring training.
