How can you guys not???? The way he's so sensitive and gets his feelings hurt when everyone is mean to him... Anyway, why are we the only smart ones who say he needs to have the surgery now? Aren't these guys getting paid the big bucks to do what's best for their ASSET and the team????? I am SO mad by this!! Of course I don't want to be without AROD for any amount of time, but I'd rather lose him now and have him back later on healthy and ready to rock and smash some balls for the Yankees so they can win the championship in their new stadium, since it appears my Tribe didn't make any serious moves in the offseason....TribeGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09101096653072676142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315155203706829641.post-24637512133461680612009-03-06T14:55:00.000-08:002009-03-06T14:55:00.000-08:00fernando - i think you said that perfectly.

He's likely going to need the surgery mid-season, and the longer he holds off the more it hurts his performance, and who wants a performance-less A-Rod?Fernando Alejandrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11051242696406856273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315155203706829641.post-36634573290114546722009-03-06T11:04:00.000-08:002009-03-06T11:04:00.000-08:00Come on RJG - you guys are supposed to make me lau...Come on RJG - you guys are supposed to make me laugh, not depress me like every other yankee blog!
