Albert Pujols, one of the greatest players in the history of the game and most revered figures in the city of St. Louis, is a coward who lacks leadership skills, at least according to the headline writers at Yahoo! Sports.

It Had To Be Arod: The Stigma of a Series-Ending Out
By William Juliano On October 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment · In General Musings, Media, Postseason, Statistical Notes
(The following is being syndicated from The Captain’s Blog).
As Alex Rodriguez’ walked back to the dugout after striking out to end the 2011 ALDS, you could practically see the headlines writing themselves. Not surprisingly, the New York tabloids didn’t disappoint when it came to assigning a disproportionate amount of [...]
Last night, I co-hosted a 1-hour radio show with Mike Silva of New York Baseball Digest. We covered a host of topics from the amazing final day of regular baseball, our expectations for the Yanks in the ALDS, the prospect of adding an additional Wild Card team, and some other issues surrounding the teams [...]
Typically, I dismiss most articles in my RSS feed produced by the mainstream media. Generally with a raised brow and a quick decisive click of the mouse ,they’re gone and I’m onto the next topic du jour. I have to give Jason Whitlock of FOX Sports credit though for grabbing my attention after producing one [...]

A comment in the RAB Open Thread from last night caught my eye, particularly this part:
Then Mike Lupica comes on and opens with a segment on Jeter which was probably the dumbest of the many Jeter segments I’ve heard so far this season. Don LaGreca cited OPS and Lupica was like “don’t get [...]
I realize I am not exactly breaking new ground with this post, but I have been fascinated by the media coverage of Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter this season, and how it compares to the coverage in years past. For years, Derek Jeter has been the media’s golden boy: the hardworking, selfless captain who comes [...]

Derek Jeter is a human being. That seems to be the lesson derived from the New York Post’s preview of Ian O’Connor’s forthcoming book about Jeter, which will focus on the Captain’s relationship with Alex Rodriguez.
Weaving Arod into [...]
Over three Sunday night games, I’ve had very little to complain about in regards to ESPN’s new Sunday Night Baseball announcing team of Dan Shulman, Orel Hersheiser, and Bobby Valentine. The last of the trio has been a bit of a weak link, but the other two have been more than passing. Shulman [...]
