What Does World Series Win Do For A-Rod
For a number of years people have discussed the fact that A-Rod had great regular seasons only to not have an impact in the post season. In this post season A-Rod played well. However, during the World Series A-Rod seemed to disappear again. The Yankees did win the World Series which gives A-Rod a World Series championship, but it can be argued that other players including Hideki Matsui played more of a role in the team winning the World Series. So, will this World Series win end the criticisms of A-Rod, or will the criticism be that A-Rod still disappeared when the real pressure was put on him?

1. A-Rod's
career postseason numbers are actually better than his career regular season numbers.

3. Gives him a bonus, hence more money to spend at strip clubs...you know,
like the ones he went to when his ex-wife went into labor.

What a POS.

4. He was a presence in the line-up...
some teams play him differently. Perhaps Matsui saw better pitches because of it? That's my two cents.

The man clearly has issues with his low self-esteem.
