The you can look at Ortiz, .231 in the 02 ALDS, .095 in the 03 ALDS, .269 in the 03 ALCS. Point being that the best of the best have cold and hot streaks at any point in the season. And think of this, Arod is only about 2000 hits away from breaking Pete Rose's all time hits record. If he plays (Arod) 12 more years, he has a real shot at passing Rose.

How nice of you to leave out ARod's 2006 playoff...what a slugger he was that series! .071 avg & obp! Hey, wow, he did have a good ALDS in 2004, but what happend to him in the ALCS? I think I forgot, can you remind me?

Wish him well in LA...


Just to show you...
