i wasn't saying that webber's place in the game is the same as a-rod. but the similarity is that they're both much better players when the game is not on the line.

regarding empty stats, i'm too lazy to dig up the article, but i read a report a while back about a-rod's numbers. a large percentage of his homers, rbi, etc. come in games that are already decided. in the 8th and 9th innings of close games, he just doesn't produce.

and thermos is right in that your own words prove my point; they haven't won a title since he got there. as a matter of fact, they've gotten farther away each year that he's been there. lose in the world series, lose in the alcs, lose in the divisional round (3 times), miss the playoffs.
