Why is it that when A-Rod is not hitting he's to blame for yankee losses, what is your excuse now that he is?
Question:His batting average is second highest on the team, his homerun count is 4, one of which a game winning grand slam. So, where are the apologies or at least the chastizing of other teammates for not performing.

Right on Daniel-son. Those filthy Yankee fans.Why do the giants get on a major win streak (8 games) and then get swept?
Starting Pitching.Out of their 5 starters, only Petitte has an ERA below 8.00!! Pavano is second lowest with 8.30, and Igawa, Mussina, and Rasner all have ERAs above 10.
Although I agree with you about Yankees fans always having an excuse. All teams have a problem, no matter how much money you spend, in keeping players consistent. When one player is doing well, another does bad. It's the cycle of life. Even so, the pitching is bound to get better, and if the bats keep on hitting the Yankees will live up to their potential.

It's the beginning of the season. It really doesn't matter right now does it?When his teammates are making half of what A-Rod is then it'll be fair for people to complain about it. When you're getting paid as much as A-Rod is, he'd better be producing.

Trust me they wont have time to hate on Arod this year. Their starting pitching is a gift to all us Yankee haters.Among active players, who has hit the most HRs as a visiting player at Fenway Park?
as a yankee fan no one is blaming a rod for the team's mistakes even with the yankees record right now a rod is still the american leagues mvp for the week but last year during the playoffs he didnt meet expectations which more than likely wont happen again this year because he has adapted as a yankee and now the pressure is off him and on the team as a whole. the starters need to work out mechanics but through the season a strong set of startes will emerge and hopefully the yankees become a dominent force in the AL EastWhat is the fastest team to win 100 games and same thing for losses?
First off, no one man other than a closer can be responsible for a team losing games on a consistent basis. ( Brad Lidge prime example. )Secondly, no one ever blamed A-Rod for the Yankees losing.
A-Rod was noted for leaving far to many men on base in scoring position and in a lot of instances with the bases loaded in tight games.
In his defense a lot of those situations were with 2 outs which made him the scape goat when he didn't drive in the runs. That sticks out like a sore thumb especially in a city like New York with him making $27,000,000 a year.
Baseball fans are baseball fans. Had A-Rod had the exact same thing happen to him on any other team the fans would let him hear it as well.
He's the highest paid player in the league and people expect him to perform like it and he currently is.
