| Re: Is this good?
I see your point, but again.. people think if someone can't do it in Boston or New York then they are worthless. A-Rod hasn't done it in New York and I don't think it's because he's going through a slump, I think it's because he's let the media and fans get to him.
Lets think about this for a sec. In the regular season A-Rod has gone through slumps and been booed by the fans, criticized by the media, but he's always been able to overcome it. Why? because he gets to face a lot of soft pitching, horrible teams, and go on long road trips away from home.. He's too great of a player to not overcome a slump in the season when he has these said opportunties.
In the playoffs, A-Rod for the most part is facing great pitching. If you aren't yourself and are letting the fans and media get to you, good pitchers are going to eat you up more so then some AAA ballplayer..
A-Rod only needs one big hit in the playoffs and it'll all turn around for him. |
