The A-Rod Power Myth

…not to be confused with the A-Rod Protection Myth…

Alex Rodriguez from July 12, 2009 through August 5, 2009:

PA: 84
SO: 22
SLG %: .385

And, yet, the Yankees went 13-6 over this span of time. So, much for the theory that the Yankees need A-Rod’s power to win games, eh?

Still, it would be nice to see Alex hit four or more homers during this upoming series with the Red Sox, just for kicks, right?

    I thought the argument referred to his mere presence in the lineup.

    I would gladly take any kid of hits with runners on or in scoring position.
