    Yankees Alex Rodriguez is god awful

    I don't care how great his numbers are. Here are his numbers from this year:
    .310, 28 homers

    What does he do? HE ****ING PUMPS UP HIS NUMBERS WHEN THE TEAM IS LEADING BY 7, OR WHEN THEY'RE DOWN BY 10, OR NOBODY'S ON BASE. Want proof? His numbers with RISP this year:
    .248, 5 homers

    That's right, he has 23 OF HIS 28 HOMERS without runners in scoring position.

    What prompted me to post this? A-Rod about 5 minutes ago was up with 1 out, bases loaded, bottom 7, down 7-3 against Boston in a must win game. What does he do? He grounds into ANOTHER ****ING DOUBLE PLAY. Somebody needs to shoot him

    Michael Kay just gave another stat: in the 8th and 9th innings this year, A-Rod has a total of 2, COUNT 'EM 2, RBI's.

    Yankee basher!! Here in lies the huge difference between Arod and Pujols who most say are 1 and 2 in the game. Pujols hits when it matters and Arod can't. No need to get mad about it now. You will have to put up with it for another 10 years.

    Wrong. Pujols just hits. All the time.

    Alex Rodriguez is the worst player in the history of baseball. I miss Clay Bellinger.

    You can always have Adam Dunn. Those two guys would look cute in the 9th together.

    My thoughts on the matter were already posted on AIM and filled with expletives, for some reason I can't get it to copy and paste here but I don't feel like retyping it.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Me too.


    On ARod...I don't resign to the "padding stats" mindset...


    But even worse than the 7th was his last at bat against Wakefield...that was the worst at bat I have seen all year.

    Dude is pressing in the clutch. He just needs to have some confidence.

    I'll be honest, that wouldn't do a thing for my confidence. In fact, that just may lower my confidence. Dude needs a hot, 26 year old model

    Re: Alex Rodriguez is god awful

    I cannot begin to explain how fed up I am w/ this overrated player. The frustrating part is we had our chance to let him go when he opted out but we foolishly re-signed him. This guy gets paid THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS a year to hit HRs when we are up or down 7-8 runs. He is such a choker and I am sick of him but unfortunately we are stuck w/ him.

    Re: Alex Rodriguez is god awful

    i just can't take it anymore. i just can't.

    today: bottom 9th, 0 out, 1st and 2nd, down by 1. What does A-Rod do? That's right. He grounds into another DP. Granted the pitching staff blew a 4 run lead. But COME ON. IF YOU'RE GOING TO GET OUT, AT LEAST ****ING STRIKE OUT YOU ****ING ASSHOLE. If I were Girardi, I'm dead serious, I would stop starting him. You can't start a guy who doesn't produce when you desperately need him, I don't care how much he makes.

    the grounder was a very sharp hit and almost not a DP if not for a great throw by Jose Bautista, who surprisingly was the best Jay today

    at this point Halladay, i dont' care if it was hit hard. it became a double play. You're not going to make it to the playoffs with the mentality "i hit it hard, so it's ok." That's like saying "we lost the game, but it was only by 1 run, so it's ok." No. It was a DP. End of story. And he needs to stop hitting into them NOW.
