AROD's getting there. We'll have to see how he does over the next few years.
A definite choke job in this series and the main reason why they lost. The double play grounder in the 9th said it all.
He's not PRIME TIME. As a Braves fan, I know the feeling. |

Yes, that double play was classic A-Rod. Did you notice how Jeter lead off with the sharp single? I'm a die-hard Red Sox fan, but I'll admit that guy is clutch and a helluva ballplayer. Go throw so more money around this offseason, Mr. Steinbrenner. |

IDK but my bro's name is Alex, and to make fun of him I used to say "Alex is gay," and he'd say "I'm tellin'" so I'd say "No, I meant Alex Rodreguez, he's a baseball guy."
I used to say this with EVER hearing of this guy or knowing who he was |

Give the Angels credit, not the team, the ones in the outfield with halos that made Crosby and Shefield collide, that put umpires in the game that seem to have it in for Robinson Cano.
Mostly though Arod, no homers, no RBI's, double play ball sandwitched between Jeters hit, Giambi's and Shefield's. What a loser!
As for the Red Sox (the Ortizes) and Yanks, they are the 2 best teams and everyone knows it, just some dumb luck and bounces. That's what makes the game interesting. |

It's easy to get behind The White Sox...
Stro's... No!
Angels... Hell no!
Cardinals... Oh Hell NO!
Glad to see both The Yankess and Braves out. It warms my heart! |

I remember when Alex left Seattle for Texas with that big paycheck. The Seattle fans fucking hated him! When Texas came back to Safeco field, Arod got boo'd like crazy. People were throwing handfulls of fake dollar bills in the stands.

bollocks - folks dissed Bonds for years for not producing in the playoffs - he showed 'em all in '02 with a monster post-season. you can't control when you get hot or cold - if you could, you'd never cool off. Alex is a class act and he'll have his day in the post-season at some point... |

Agreed....Marino played 17 yrs and no ring..doesn't mean he wasn't best pure passer ever. |

There is no argument he's a great player in the regular season. Also, there is no denying his overall talent. He'll go down as one of the great, great players in his generation. He'll even have a very good chance to eventually surpass the career home run records held by Aaron (Bonds???) if he stays healthy.
That's not really the question in this thread. It's about PRIME TIME baseball. Some players always seem to be hot in the postseason and some players, like A Rod, always seem to be cold. There's much more going on here than whether someone just happens to be hot or cold when the postseason arrives.
The history of baseball has shown there are definitely PRIME TIME performers and there are other players who simply don't perform when the heat is on (CHOKERS).
The question is how many home runs, RBI's, and clutch hit's have the Yankees been getting from A Rod in the post season????
Is he PRIME TIME or is he CHOKE????
