I don't think fans are as angry with ARod anymore as people may think. Of course, a good playoffs will get him over the postseason bump, but during the season, he continues to be their best production bat.

I try to imagine what the Yankees would be like without Alex and they'd be nowhere close to this productive as an offensive unit.
A-Rod has been as clutch as any other player this year, I really think he would have to be considered as MVP as well for this team for what he did this year. He had two walk off HR's (and a walk off error, thanks Mets, lol).
