Big Blue 06 195 Posted April 19, 2007 I know it's still early, but this has potential to be the best April we've ever seen. 13th game tonight: 13 game hitting streak. 9 HRs 23 RBIs. He is as hot as I've ever seen a player. I couldn't be happier to see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You want to write off his start because it's A-Rod or because it's the Yankees. If that was Ortiz or Manny doing this, you'd have to change your pants.

BMoney 0 Posted April 19, 2007 he will be booed next week..(if he hasnt been already).... and he did this in inclement weather...i hope he continues on and takes attn away from the cheater in SF.. red sox fans say this because they dont have a player of his caliber of their team....i wish arod would flip off the fans who boo him and just leave..

Mungwater 588 Posted April 19, 2007 Hopefully he will find the need to be reunited with Sweet Lou in Chicago, put him at shortstop, give him that short porch in Left.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted April 19, 2007 Yanks fans better enjoy him this year, it will be his last in pinstripes Is that supposed to make the Yankee fan worry? Because it wont. I'm not a Yankee fan, but its not like they won't go out and sign the next best power hitter they can find. I will say that the Yankee fans have been spoiled over the years but you have to give their boss the credit. George is the one willing to put his money back into the team that he ownes. He's only playing by the rules. There are other owners with tons of money that don't like to spend. That is not the Yankee fans fault. The player they get might not be as great as A.Rod, but I feel team chemistry has a lot to do with winning than having a one man wrecking crew. Usually pitching will decide your fate more than hitting anyway. I'd rather have an all 280-325 hitting team with solid pitching than a power hitting with no pitching type of team. If hitting for power was the end all than there would be a lot of other power hitters with more rings. Edit. I see your crying emoticon. I guess you're not a Yankee hater. Good Luck this year. I am a Mets fan. I should be the one But they are getting better now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieJr 541 Posted April 19, 2007 Personally, I'm rooting for ARod. I think that he's a very sensirive guy who has a lot of trouble dealing with the negativity of the New York media. It's good to see him playing to the potential that he always had. That being said, he could hit .350 with 65 home runs and 175 RBIs, and people won't bat an eye unless he has a couple of good playoff series. His reputation as a non-clutch player isn't going to go away with a great regular season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted April 19, 2007 He did it again!!! The Yanks were down 6-2 with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. Josh Phelps hit a hr to make it 6-3. They kept the rally going with Jeter knocking in a run. Then the score was 6-5 with 2 men on and A.Rod at the plate. And then, BOOM!! A Game winning Hr by A. Rod. It was unreal how it all played out. WOW! 14 games and he has 10 hr's and 26 RBI'S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted April 19, 2007 Whew. For a minute there I thought I wasn't going to get my daily HR. That would not have been acceptable! He was 0-4 before that at bat. Just the way it ended up was unreal. A.Rod has been coming up in clutch situations and pulling through for the team. He's on fire right now. On to Boston! Fri, Sat & Sunday night. Should be fun to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I remember right, in that inning the Yankees were down to their last strike 3 different times. I still can't beleive they were able to come away with that win today. I think that was their 6th come from behind win so far this season. Here. http://www.optonline.net/Sports/Article/Fe...icle%3D21885665 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMoney 0 Posted April 20, 2007 is anyone else riding arod to the HR streak title on MLB.com? nail 10 and get 10k...i died at 6 when i went away from him for 1 focking day.... he is still the best regular season player in the game... He was 0-4 before that at bat. Just the way it ended up was unreal. A.Rod has been coming up in clutch situations and pulling through for the team. He's on fire right now. On to Boston! Fri, Sat & Sunday night. Should be fun to watch. who the fock pitches to him with a base open and being as hot as he is? that manager should be fired on the spot... thats as bad as taking halladay out in the 8th....
