I don't understand why everybody - mainly people in NYC - are hating on A-Rod. This guy is trying to please everyone, when he should just please himself. I know he doesn't always come up big with needed big hits in key situations, (he does come up with big hits sometimes) but he's trying hard. Yes he's going a slump (OFF/DEF) but who doesn't? This dude is putting up good numbers this year - but just not up to others standards. He's batting .287 with 86 RBI's and a .387 OBP. Why, thats similar to another 3rd baseman in another league...David Wright who is considered to be having a remarkable year. Why the difference in opinions with people with similar stats? Well I have news for you people. HE'S HUMAN!!! I mean, imagine all the pressure this man puts up with from people - and the fact that people - in his own home town - boo him doesn't help. You think the booing is going to encourage him? That's not right. Let the reigning MVP have some breathing room, a person can take but so much!
