The A-Rod media fest continues

Since Alex Rodriguez began his winter break earlier than expected (along with the rest of the $200 million disappointment known as the 2006 New York Yankees), the media can no longer obsess about his lack of production. This means they have to shift gears and obsess about possible trade scenarios involving Rodriguez. Since Lou Pinella was hired as the Cubs newest manager, the latest rumors have Alex going to the Cubs. In fact, some stories would have you believe that part of the pre-hiring discussions between Pinella and the Cubs revolved around Rodriguez. Some would have you believe he will go to Oakland. Cashman denies that A-Rod is going anywhere. The fact that he has a no-trade clause and claims he wants to stay in New York further increases the likeliness that he stays. But regardless of what is said or done, the media is just getting warmed up with A-Rod this winter.

A-Rod is, without question, a great ballplayer. He's a superstar! But I just don't see him making it in New York. For him to perform well, he needs to be the center of attention and Jeter owns the Yankees' fans. Alex needs to move to a less competitive market, do the job that he is capable of doing, and enjoy his walk to the Hall.

Patience is the key here. The guy had a bad year, and still hit .290 with 35 home runs, 121 RBI and 113 runs. His lousy year is better than most guys great years. I realize he stunk in the postseason, but I have faith that a guy of his caliber and talent can pull his head out of his butt and contribute in the playoffs.
