  1. I don't think there is any way that Rodriguez bats 8th...he should, but I don't think it will happen.

    1. Until he proves he CAN"T do the job! I would start him out there, rather than insult him right at the start.
      I don't know about you guys but I am hoping he is back to being at the minimum, a bit above avg.! He needs 47 hrs to be 4th in line and 100 hits to go over 3,000 hits, as a power hitter...that ain't to bad!!

    2. I don't think the Yankees nor Joe Girardi have any respect for A Rod, have shown any respect to A Rod or will show any respect to A Rod.

      If the team wont even guarantee him a position what makes you think they bat him 5th KNepper?

    3. Hell, they show more respect for Big Popi and Roger Clemens than for their own.
      If I ever wanted someone to get their sh-t together, I would give them something above their position, pay attention to the way they act with the responsibility.

      Perception of A-Rod is the only thing they can see! He is going to have a hard job convincing them he can help the team win. He can convince the players much easier. But, it is what it is!

    4. I'm an A Rod fan, the #13 still hangs in my Yankees man room, so I hope more than most that he comes out of the gates and forces Girardi's hand into playing him. The problem is I can't see him getting enough opportunities to do it.
