Arod won the mvp award the first year he played for the yankees.

He will never win again. He is not worth having. Does not show up in the playoffs and he can't feild worth sh!t.

Yeah because a player who hits walk off grand slams are not worth having. The Yankees need ARod this year IMO. Their pitching staff isn't great and they need the big offense to ensure they come out on top in games and losing ARod will mean giving up 40+ HRs and 120+ RBIs. It's early in the season those errors will no doubt reduce as he gets into the swing of the regular season more.

A-Rod is a bum. I don't give a sh!t about hitting a grand slam in the opening week of the season. We need to trade him for better pitching a better feilder at 3rd base. I don't know how many Yankees games you watch but he makes way to many errors that cost us runs. I don't care what he can do it the regular season because the post season is where it counts.

I watched the opener against Tampa and although he made that error in the 1st he bounced back to hit a critical HR. That error in the opener also was a bit harsh as it was a tricky catch and IMO it should have been the catcher going over to try make a play on the ball.
If the Yankees trade him they could miss out on the playoffs especially considering they have the Red Sox to contend with and an AL Central division which looks strong and IMO likely to win the wildcard with Detroit, Minnesota, Chicago and Cleveland in the division.

The Yankees do not need A-Rod. They have a good enough offense that they can compete with A-Rod by trading for better pitching a better 3rd basemen. I rather have a player that can step up in the playoffs then have a player that keeps on making errors and that does not show up in big games.

I remember when Bary Bonds struggled in the playoffs and then he finally got that monkey off his back not too long ago.
He has not shown up in the playoffs so far, fine, I will agree with that. But the Yanks need him and his bat. How can you sit there and say ARod is garbage, son you need to really think it over man!
I want you to seriously name me any player in the MLB you rather have at 3rd Base.
So before this season in the NFL Peyton Manning was a bum too I guess. LOL kids these days I tell you!

Yes A-Rod is one of the greatest player ever. But we need better pictching and better feilding that when trading A-Rod comes in. A-Rod has not been able to handle the pressur on being a Yankee and I don' think he ever will. The 3rd basemen I would rather have would be Eric Chavez, Miguel Carbera or Ryan Zimmerman. They are all better at3rd base defense then A-Rod They may not be as good as A-Rod but I have more faith in them during October. No, I never though Peyton was a bum because he carried the team by himself and I knew he would eventually step up, which I don't think A-Rod will ever be able to do in the playoffs as a Yankee. It is not always about who the most talented player or who hits the most home runs in the season it is about the better all around player. Like defense, offense and crunch time.

Exactly, this is why ARod wont be going anywhere. Our pitching is like anyone elses in the Majors...unknown for now, its fukin April. We cant honestly say whos pitching is better and have you looked at our farm system lately?! Our pitching will be fine. Oh and the thing about Yankee pressure....I think that Grand Slam he hit was what we all will remember as ARods turn around as a Yankee (Just like Giambi's slam in the rain). He is going to have his best season ever and we will think about that slam when he is holding the WS Trophy in his hands this Oct...mark my words.

I couldn't say it better. This is A-rod you are talking about! You obviously think that A-rod is a bum because he hasn't produced in big situations in past years. You also know nothing about the game. I am a yankee fan, but it is fans like you that give yankees fans a bad name with the whole A-rod sucks. If you were a Devil Rays fan and A-rod was on the team, would you be saying the same thing. No way. I grew up whe nthe Yanks sucked and I was hoping they would be in second or even third place. Give A-rod an f-in break. He is the 4 hitter on the (highest priced team) Yanks. There is absolutely no pressure involved with being that guy when everyone is bullshit on your every move. I admit that the media and fans have really gotten to him. This year you can see it is in eyes that he is out to prove something. He has that A-rod confidence like he had in the past with the RANGERS and MARINERS. He is amazing right now. Let's hope that mental block is gone and he takes the piano that he has been carrying around on his back off. I played college baseball and know what it is like when you are in a slump and you start 2nd guessing your gifted ability to hit. Once you second guess how good you are at the plate, you are absolute toast no matter how good an athlete you are. He takes the criticism and the b-s from the media and fans to heart for some reason. I believe that he will be MVP this year if he keeps his positive confidence up throughout the year.
And another thing Kobe, I was also a Lakers, Jets, and Yanks fan like you. Now I won't watch one NBA game because of the whole one on one no defense crap that goes on in that league. Watch college basketball if you like "real basketball". One of the main reasons for my boycott of the NBA was when 12 or so years ago the Lakers drafted a young punk from PA. He has single handed ruined my former love of the Lakers. I hate everything he does and cannot stand to watch a game he plays in. He is an arrogant, *beep*y, ball hog, who thinks the world revolves around his ass. I didn't particularly like Jordan either, but I at least respected him as a person. I don't respect Kobe one bit and would love to see what he says and does in the locker room. I guarantee he gets under his teammates skin each game and they lose respect for him kinda like TO in the NFL. Kobe= arrogant prick who can shoot and can run an NBA team into the ground. He loses the big man and guess what, nothing. WHy, because now he wants to play one on one against the whole opposing team? I say get rid of the NBA and play pay per view one on one, it is the same thing. People would pay to see Kobe vs. Nash, Dirk vs. Duncan.
