A-Rod out of the lineup and yet Granderson is there :beli:
A-Rod actually has a case to be in the lineup too. :smh: Dude has 8 hits against Hammel.

:why: At this game being on at 5 I'm not going to see 1 pitch of it. Then my brother was telling me how cheap the tickets were I would 100% be there if not for work:noah:. Well John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman will have to create the perfect picture for me:scusthov:.

:stopitslime: How am I trolling? I mean I get it A-Rod has been ass but 8 hits against Hammel regardless is good enough to get him in the lineup imo. Maybe not in the 3 or 4th hole.

Personally, if I were to keep him in the lineup, i'd have him 5-8. His playoff numbers are so abysmal, I have no problem with him being benched. I normally don't say shyt like this, but i'm starting to wonder if his use of (drugs) has hindered his performance.

Exactly, I would have him batting around 5-8 as well. Personally I don't think the drugs have hindered him. I think the wrist and and the fact that his mechanics is out of whack is playing as factor as to why he is underachieving.

I honestly think I would start Gardner over Granderson atleast maybe he could draw a walk or possibly hit a infield single. Curtis is a Strike Out everytime.

Every Time I Witness Alex Bomb In The Playoffs I Think About How He Will Be Received By Yankee Fans At The End Of His Career, During Ceremonies At The Stadium, Like he Retirement Of His Number.

Im Sure He Wont Be Booed But Everyone Looks At A Rod With A Side Eye On Some Ehh

I Gotta Think It Wont Be Some Heart Warming Moment Full Of Appreciation, More Like "Ok That's Nice, Back To The Game"

Over the years of A-Rod being a Yankee I've become a big fan of his. I know a lot of people are hung up on the Jeter or A-Rod thing but there my 2 favorite players on the team and I know a lot of fellow Yankee fans that feel the same way. But I also know just as many who despise him more then any other Yankee ever. Should be interesting when it happens.

Yeah this was pretty moronic. It's 5 PM on a Friday in NYC.

Not only will you not maximize viewers, you're also not maximizing attendance.

fukk girardi. His interview about Arod was some bullshyt and if we lose go out on your shield binder . He's so smug and defending grandy ? If he swings at strikes hell do damage well he swings at everything thrown at him :comeon: he said he can't play Gardner he only has 3 abs so why bring him? This is pretty much blaming Arod while acknowledging the team is struggling that's not a good look. Jones and weiters look bad too but bet they playing today .

I can't believe Girardi compared A-Rod to himself:snoop:. But as shytty as A-rods been I kind of feel that's who you have to go into battle with. Hopefully Chavez can come up big but I could easily see him going 0fer.
