This observation is not intended to excuse ARod's performance. I'm just acknowledging the reality of the rehabbing player who batted fourth for the Yankees in the playoffs.
ARod as a Concept is a cleanup hitter.
ARod as an Actual Player in October, 2011 is not a cleanup hitter, and probably not even a starting player.
The unwillingness to acknowledge this reality possibly cost the Yankees the first round of the playoffs.
