Re: Why is Arod really hate by so many people?
Against my better judgement, I actually watched the Yankees/Angels game on Sunday (which actually turned out to be a fun game to watch), but again I heard that A-Rod's average this season with 'Runners in Scoring Position' was in the .230's...he then hit a ball to Figgins which should have been an inning ending DP (bases were loaded) but Figgins booted it and was charged with an error

ARod is the new Roger Maris, a good non-homegrown player. Until he get a championship ARod will not be fully accepted by the Yankee fans. So is CC or Sheets coming to the Yankees?

Re: Why is Arod really hate by so many people?
I find it odd how a player like arod with his ability can't come through in the clutch.
His numbers each year are always great. But what good does that do for your team winning a championship, if you can't come through when it really matters?

Re: Why is Arod really hate by so many people?
Even as big of a Arod fan that I am, I'm kinda getting bored with just him doing his thing during the year. The talent he has, and the number of years he's been playing, he should be doing his thing in the post season (well, not this year of course)

Re: Why is Arod really hate by so many people?
I think there are probably alot of guys that have difficulty in the clutch, but put up great numbers. Current example is Thome. He came thru last night, but up til then he was suffering a horrid end to the year.
Arod's numbers in clutch and coming off as cocky to many are probably culprits in his issues with popularity...

Re: Why is Arod really hate by so many people?
Never had the opportunity to meet him. Would be something I would look forward too.
Arod's hated for many reasons. I think most of it is jealousy. You can't argue with his workout habits. You can't argue with his intense play on the field. You can't argue with his numbers year after year. You can argue his post season play. The money he makes...who cares. If we all had the opportunity to get paid like that, we would have no problem.
Looking forward to next years. Bye bye Giambi and Abreu
