Really? Never?
Never is an overstatement - I have seen too many instances of him striking out or popping up with runners in scoring position with the game tied or the Yanks behind by a run or two. He seems to be great at driving in runs when the Yanks have a large lead. Just my impression.
I'm sure none of his RBIs have ever helped the Yankees win a game, let alone a World Series. Of course all of Jeter's career hits have come at crucial times.
Wow, I forget about him. Wonder if the organization would be comfortable with him in the field regularly against lefties. The way he was demoted earlier (at a time when Gardner was down and Nunez was the only real speed threat on the roster) makes me wonder. Obviously the kid can hit and he seems no worse a liability at third than short. If they do bring him back now he's probably playing for his Yankee career.
I think the Yankees might feel more comfortable with him, if he plays one position exclusively. I know they sent him down to focus on shortstop, but now maybe they can change gears and have him focus on this third.
yes most unclutch superstar ever. strikes out so many times when the game was on the line. didnt he end the last few seasons with a strikeout, i seem to recall, hes a overpaid bum. we can pay 2,3 players with his salary who will be more productive and less of a beechnut baby.
jeter came through in the clutch several times , when we needed a big hit, arod struck out, this is common knowledge, but since you dont seem to understand what clutch is it makes sense to defend arod.
hello arod had his best postseason that year, leading up to that he had something like 0-2 hits in too many at bats. hes a bum, over paid bum. if i was him i would be embarrassed to collect my paycheck. i would donate a good chunk back to the yankees to get another player.
his conditioning does nothing when we need a big hit from him, i dont see how anyone can defend him in clutch situations, hes failed miserably tons of times. he came through probably 1 out of 70 times.
You're getting confused here, albanycuse. 1 out of 70 is about how often you come through with a good post.
well that makes my % still better than yours. anyone who defends arod and being clutch is not worth talking too.
The only reason I haven't lost complete respect for you is because I like your new avatar.
Dont compare arod with cano or tex. i watch all the games , i dont read or listen to any writer, im a realist and arod has failed miserably. A run in the first inning isnt a clutch situation when theres the whole game left to be played, so in reality its still worth a run but not the same pressure as a late inning tied game or down a run with runners on base, lets say 2 outs and arod strikes out or doesnt advance the runner as usual.
Lol im still giving you opportunity to earn my respect, but youve failed more than arod in thre clutch.
