Well it's pretty much accepted that AROD is a post-season choke. We all know he's overpaid. The question is whether Tex is also tending that way(it's not like he was knocking in Halos in the post against Boston.) Against quality playoff pitching, I don't see him as a tough out(20 mil/year star should be.) The Wednesday Night at bat against PAP is a great example. He tried to pull that pitch. Won't work. To me, the Phils have at least 3 good hitters that would have been able to go with that pitch the other way. Those are good post season hitters. I do wish Gales would have waited until the post to talk about Tex. GALES, don't be making trouble.
