NomarFachix Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 I honestly don't think they stick in Chavez if that ball gets past Peralta in the first inning and scores two.Probably not. They're dying for him to come up with a clutch hit, but a ground out is not a 2 RBI hit. It's a groundout. Find a gap, dude. He isn't free of criticism. But are we really going to jump at every opportunity to rip the guy apart? The contract was an awful idea. Hank is a moron for succumbing to A-Rod's demands. Everyone should've known that the second it happened. No one should be shocked that his power numbers and bat speed have both declined significantly at age 37. It makes no sense to me that we keep bringing a ten-year deal up that has long been considered a failure as reason to attack someone anymore than anyone else who is playing like garbage right now. When he's 42, do we continue to boo him? It makes more sense to view him through the same scope as everyone else whose hitting is abysmal right now. I expect more from Cano than from A-Rod and he is rolling over a hell of a lot of pitches.We continue to boo him as long as he plays like dogshit. It's that simple. If you don't get why he's booed so fiercely it's because you're intentionally looking the other way. If Kobe, Pau, and Jamison all shoot 25% in a playoff series, who do you think shoulders a majority of the blame? It's Kobe, and rightfully so. And if he doesn't? We're just going to accept the bad results and continue to point fingers at him even if the bad decision is on Girardi? The reality is Jeter may very well have had trouble not falling apart had the Yankees dropped him in the lineup in the 2010 regular season, and that move would've actually been justified.Accept bad results? No, we loathe the bad results. How is any of this on Girardi? A-Rod has what, 2 hits this postseason? That's on him, not the coach. Coach isn't telling him to look at two pitches down the cock and then wave at one outside. Coach doesn't tell him to (incorrectly) guess pitches. Coach sees a player performing like Clay Bellinger and handles him accordingly. $29M Clay Bellinger, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoastNiner Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Granted I have not seen the play that's being talked about, I hate the entire view that you just "move on" after a blown call, especially if, as has been said in here, and inning would have definitely ended at 1-0, rather than 3-0. You can't give professional players extra chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
