With Alex Rodriguez's two out, game-winning, walk-off grand slam yesterday, New York City is in love with him again. For now. He gets the back page treatment from the News and the Post , with both tabs using "A-Men!" And the Times gets A-Rod to talk about feeling like a little kid again.
But the overwhelming demands of New York fans - and the overbearing eye of New York media - will likely be an All-Star. Time will tell what happens with his turn as a Yankee, but we want to know what you think:
For our money, A-Rod is a great, if misunderstood-in-NYC, player. There are more expensive players on the Yankees' payroll - Jason Giambi to name one - as the Rangers are still paying about half of A-Rod's crazy salary. Our prediction: The Yankees will trade him after the season and regret it.

You can't have a 2 on grand slam. Perhaps you meant two-out, two strike?
Damn you John B for stealing my joke.
a-rod's stats last year were great. just cuz he aisn't a clutch player doesn't mean he isn't a good player. give the guy a break.
Saying the Yanks will *trade* A-Rod after the season is one of the dumbest things I've read here in a long time.
1. A-Rod, if he leaves New York, will opt out of his contract at the end of the season to sign a bigger one elsewhere.
2. If the Yanks trade A-Rod, they will do so before the trade deadline and not after the season when they would have next to no leverage.
Those are indisputable facts that are easily available to anyone with Google skills.
