He's a pretty great analysist, as ex-players go. He always struck me as a smart guy, hope to see more of him.

Yep,he is pretty sharp. I like Thomas and the young host,too.

What Pete Rose is doing there is another story.

A-Rod is sharpe and knows the game well.

I guess he wants to do this TV thing even though he's made like 300 million in his career. But people have always said that about him. He loves baseball.

There was an SI story where A-ROD went to Jeter's house. He asked him to put on the MLB package to watch some games. Jeter said he did't have it. That he only cares about the games he plays and doesn't want to watch other games. That's not A-ROD. He's a baseball junkie.

The other day, he only needed some white makeup on his face to complete a clown outfit. It was very odd.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

His speach and mannerism remind me of the penguin from the old batman show.

I don't know how many of you were up last night,but the postgame crew was discussing switching bats in a slump. ARod said he never did that. Pete asked "would you use my bat?."

ARod replied:"No,you were too Punch & Judy!"

That made Pete angry. I thought it was great.

Yeah, for as much of a cock he was as a player, he was always fairly media savvy...and he has great baseball IQ. Good stuff.

Definitely agree on the baseball IQ. Sadly, it's rare to get analysis from players that you couldn't get from someone who never played. He gave some good insight into the Cubs' mindset and the approach he would take to get out of the "funk" that wasn't just recycled, cliche'd rubbish.

Dude sounds like sissy, awful analysis, awful for the game.

During Chapman's meltdown tonight in the 9th inning, A-rod kept stressing that his best pitch this inning, and the pitch he needed to go with, was the slider.

Sure enough, eventually struck out the last batter with the slider over the plate.

I had to laugh as it reminded me of Steve Stone as to how on target A-rod's prediction was.

A-rod as an analyst is beautiful.

It's kinda like Romo. I think players who just left the game have a better feel for it.

He was right on about Andujar’s butchery at third.
