Joe Torre Allegedly Blasts A-Rod and Yankees Brass in New Book

The East coast/West coast rap battle that seemingly stopped hip hop in its tracks in the mid 90's is back, but this time its in baseball, where the Los Angeles Dodgers' Joe Torre allegedly blasts his former team The New York Yankees.

In his soon to be new book "The Yankee Years", (which will be released on February 3, 2009) Joe Torre allegedly claims:

Alex Rodriguez was known as "A-Fraud" among his own teammates, and he had an unhealthy obsession with Derek Jeter.

Team doctors told Yankees owner George Steinbrenner that Torre had cancer before they told Torre.

Yankees General manager Brian Cashman sold the manager down the river, not telling the ownership that Torre wanted a two-year deal to remain as manager.

Who knew there was this much drama in baseball?
