Alex Rodriguez is having a two week revelation that is almost too good to be true. The effectiveness of his bat is a surprisingly welcome sight for the pinstripes, whom have needed every bit of his production thus far. He currently leads the team in Homeruns (4), RBI's (11) , and batting average (.344) over the first 10 games. Last night he delivered a throwback performance, belting two homers and driving in the go ahead run in a comeback victory over the Rays, a feat that no one could have possibly seen coming. Despite the year long suspension and lack of full competition, Rodriguez looks to have not skipped a beat.
It's certainly nice to see him playing at a high level early in the year, especially since no one thought he would even be a moderately viable asset to the roster. Hopefully he can keep this up for the sake of Joe Girardi and Brian Cashman, both of whom put a great deal on his importance to the teams success this season. For now Yankees fans can bask (or gawk) in what Rodriguez is doing as he has provided a little bit of optimism for 2015.
