A-Rod singlehandedly won the Yankees their last World Series in 2009.
If his number 13 isn’t retired it’s only a matter of time until Jazz Chisholm, Jr. will take that spot in Monument Park.

quote:This. From a Yankees fan.
A-rod was a clubhouse killer to his teammates. Hated in Seattle, Texas, and NY. Dude hardly EVER produced when it mattered most. Winners want the ball when the game is on the line, and he always seemed to disappear in the biggest moments. Hit a ton of meaningless HRs.

quote:how I remember it: the MLB players association nixed the deal bc A-rod wanted to renegotiate his contract to take less so the Red Sox would make the deal. Red Sox didn’t want to pay the whole thing, Red Sox balked, Yankees 3rd baseman and hero of the previous year ALCS game 7 tore his ACL, leaving a hole open at 3rd base, A-rod was still looking to get out of Texas, Yankees had the pieces and financial courage to pull the trigger
I remember when the Rangers tried to trade him to the Red Sox for Manny Ramirez and Jon Lester, but MLB torpedoed the deal so the Yankees could acquire him.
Fact check me
