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
