Geesh, AROD not coming through.....

0-4

Just GIDP(2nd in game) with the bases loaded and the Yanks down by four.

I actually think at some point in his career, he will come through.

Perhaps I'm giving him to much credit.

Perhaps it will be with another team.

Unfortunately no other team will want him w/the crazy salary the Yanks are paying him. Glad to see him come through...choke!

Soon, he just has to come up big in big games......and on a consistant basis.

Fucking awful in clutch situations this year... However he was prob the most clutch player in baseball last year... unreal numbers when it counted

Debacle with guys on a base, worst guy in the lineup I would want to see up with RISP and that's terrible, and as stated above, I think the Yanks are stuck with him.

Arod is fucking sucking right now, but no one in baseball wants to face him with men on, NO ONE.

He will get his shit together with runners on like he did last year

Sadly right now people do want to face him, Abreu was INT walked to get to him a few weeks back

He may get another kep at-bat in this game tonight before it's all over.

Stay tuned.

6 lob tonight.

.248 with risp this season.

Is that a fact?

Wow!

He's grounded into 9 double plays in the last 18 games.

4 in the first 91 games.

Red Sox would love to have him. Good luck with that Kotsay trade, btw. That's a scary bat.

If not mistaken, he just struck out to end the game.

Yes he did.

He has 2 RBI's in the 8th and 9th inning this year. Thats hard to do and still put up big numbers.

Last year he was the most clutch player in baseball.

Arod and clutch do not belong in the same sentence.

A-Rod 1-for-10 this season with the bases loaded—0-for-7 when there were less than two outs.

I expect AROD to have at worst a decent game tonight and probably a very good one.

If he goes hitless and the Yankees lose, the NY media will be all over him.

Fyi

AROD Lifetime vs Paul Byrd:

20 Plate Appearances 4 hits -- 3 singles -- 1 HR - 3 RBI ---1BB - 6Ks --.222 Bat. ave. .300 OBP - .389 SLG% - 689 OPS*. 1 Sacrifice.

*OPS is On-Base Percentage + Slugging Percentage. It is a pretty good estimate of offensive ability.

For example: Carlos Guillen has a 1.136 OPS vs Paul Byrd, obviulsy Guillen hits Byrd harder that ARod historically, which does not mean AROD does not have a big game tonight.
