"He’s had the whole off season to get ready and not feel like he has to catch up and get into playing shape... To me, that’s one of the reasons I think it’s important that we do keep him fresh and he feels good on his legs all the time.
I expect him to put up a big season."
Look, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that this was Joe Girardi speaking to Alex through the press. Make no mistake, I am sure ARod saw and heard what his manager had to say loud and clear. It's not like Girardi is calling out Alex or anything like that, but I do think the Yankee Skipper was conveying a message that the Yankee brass want to be sure Alex knows it's expected of him to perform big time in 2012.
Personally think that a healthy ARod this year has the potential to put up another MVP season...and by that I mean this:
.312 Batting Avg. - 38 HR's -- 131 RBI
