Smart, Knowledgable Fans

I like that the fans at Yankee Stadium are booing A-Rod mercilessly. Cause when a guy misses 22 games and STILL leads the team in home runs, rbis and (incredibly) runs scored, you really need to let him know that you've just about had it with his bullshit.

ARod is batting .278 with runners on, .271 with runners in scoring position, and .250 with RISP and 2 outs. They shouldnt have resigned him after he tried (unsuccessfully) to leave, and I would trade him in a heartbeat. (And oh yeah, he batted .243 in August, but I guess that month isnt so important.)

What's that? Derek's stats? Sure:
.299 with runners on, .311 with runners in scoring position, and .322 with RISP and 2 outs. And .345 in August, .390 in September!!!; 2:10 PM

Xmastime said...: two weeks.; 2:14 PM
Xmastime said...: and Jeter did NOTHING all year till about a month ago...after the Yankees had faded from any playoff hopes. which is the kinda thing A=Rod gets pummeled for.

wait, I was wrong...Jeter did lead the universe in GIDPs ;); 2:51 PM
Rambler said...: Jeter has four rings, has made the memorable plays (the A's playoff game, the Redsox game when he dived into the stands)and acts like he actually gives a shit.; 5:07 PM
Xmastime said...: yes, I know Jeter has unlimited collateral. Im a fan for chrissake!!

But a lot of Yankees mailed it in throughout the year, and A-Rod wasnt one of them. He deserves better than to be booed.; 11:05 PM
