Well that'll just shut up the people trying to make all this A-Rod nonsense into something bigger.

he is playing in the ALLSTAR GAME in yankee stadium just not the stupid overrated home run derby. but yet if arod did play in the homerun derby then he got hurt or did bad he will still be criticized by people that hate him like you.

Good point. It was a lose/lose situation for Arod.

Francona has him batting clean up tonight so he will be on centre stage.
