A rod is part of the reason baseball is expanding at the moment , he's doing all the behind the scenes interviews with all of our favorite players
Elias Ayala its not expanding nba free agency is talked about more than baseball
Mark Greenwood baseball is not in a decline , basketball just got extremely popular, baseball is still on PrimeTime , depending on who plays and the game is working towards selling the brand of the best players , a rod is a big part of that , at least the mlb is trying to change , by creating a new fan experience and being marketable for urban culture , unlike the nfl ,
Yes, unfortunately baseball is a game for the more intelligent and in this generation, it just doesnt appeal to most people who have the attention span of a nat.
"urban culture" lol
elias "Baseball is not in a decline" Ayala LMAO turn on the tv at any empty stadium and say that again dude
Alex found his calling, he was a phenomenon in baseball and he is probably the best announcer in baseball
luis almodovar he’s not the best announcer but he already has proven to be among the best analysts due to his immense knowledge it takes a year or two for athletes to get comfortable with announcing in general
it's crazy because this is basically just his side job. He owns his own real estate company now and, with the whole JLo thing, has a whole life away from baseball
Yup. He’s the best announcer. I totally agree.
I have to admit, I was not a fan of Alex the player, but I really like the retired Alex.
Until he checks into your hotel, the real arod a asshole
ptl2007 Arod the player won 2 MVP awards with the Yankees and carried the team to the 09 championship
Dwayne Knox ive heard he’s a really nice guy from people who’ve met him. Idk where ur getting this from
Has he technically retired?
Jack Daniels yes he is, his contract expired last offseason, now he’s on payroll as a advisor but for considerably less money
Have to admit A-ROD doing a great job with ESPN as an analyst also he's got J-LO waiting at home for him, what a life
Always interesting to hear different perspectives on hitting!
sup dood!?
Yeah your right
Dude you are the number 1 comment in almost every single baseball video lol you’re everywhere
@@rebeccaellsbury73 my masterplan is working...🤓
Antonelli Baseball did you see my comment on your most recent video as well? Hahahaha I made this comment here, and then I saw you AGAIN as top comment on the very next baseball video I watched and then finally went to your channel to check it out and I commented on your most recent video, which I watched the entirety of. You’re welcome for the Adsense 😂😂. I wonder if we’ll ever see a lefty catcher in MLB! A fascinating topic indeed.
He may slump from time to time, but he is extremely valuable.
Daniel E. Colón till the playoffs
Is he tho ?
@@ryanwarren7833in the playoffs when judge is nowhere to be found Stanton is usually their best player
It was well documented, mostly through “inside stories” A-Rod’s love for baseball and his high IQ. I am glad he has the opportunity to show that side of him more.
A-Rod asks the right questions and although he knows the correct answers for most of them, he acts as if he is learning something new. He ask the right questions in benefit of all the new players coming up...very nice!
A rod is good at this stuff. Also Stanton makes him look small
Peter Dragon no he doesn't
La leyenda A.ROD
Not at all. Arod is still big honestly.
Not really, Stanton is taller , but Arod actually looks buffer
He does, and Alex is huge
I love Alex’s interview style, he really seems super comfortable. Great Job Alex, I can’t wait to see more.
I love Stanton.
A-rod speaks very well . Comes across knowledgeable and polite
I love how A-Rod seems so interested in G’s information. I love it! Never too old to stop learning.
As a Yankee fan I had a love hate relationship towards A-Rod. After he did his time in ‘14 I believe he redeemed himself. I actually would want him to manage the Yankees one day. He has such a good way of connecting with young players
Stanton is on his way to becoming one of the games all-time greats.
A rod as a analyst is the best out there. guys got a lot of knowledge of the game. should b a hitters coach
I don’t give a shit what anyone says when arod first came in the league playing for Seattle he was the shit. I’ll always remember going to the kingdom with my pops and watching arod and Griffey
Mitch Keller don’t forget about lord buhner and Edgar or even randy the big unit Johnson
People who talk shit about Arod are so wrong. The man is a legend.
@@9aqua_man282 nope when he was a player he was a self centered money greety cocky itiot
Its amazing Yankees have 2 guys bigger than Alex Rodriguez.
Julian Styles mire than that.... cc for sure.... a bunch over 6'4
Zee 9K for position players
You know not what you don't talk about.
Catholic Renewed what? Stanton and Judge are not bigger than Alex?
Only in height .
ESPN, Alex Rodriguez is a great interviewer. I think his knowledge of the game, his elegance and the way he uses his words while interviewing others is VERY GOOD. Keep him on that role that he is PERFECT.
Long live A Rod. One of the best baseball player interviewer you’ll find. He gets the attention from the players and he listens
Big G, my favorite player currently playing. Tony Gwynn was my favorite player growing up.
Love these behind the scenes with arod even as a so fan u can't hate the man
Always been an A-Rod fan
Da big man G! Hope he comes back soon.
Excellent interview
I love A-rod. I have honestly never cared what anyone else thinks of him. Was my favourite ever since he joined the Rangers - when i started following mlb - and remains my favourite. Hope to continue to see more of him
This is Dwayne Johnson playing baseball
I didn't like a rod as a player but I love hearing him talk baseball...he is GOOD!!!
He was a good player but, his scandals outweighs his career more.
Giancarlo 😍😍😍
alex rodriguez shirt is crying for help
Unless your name is Judge, you look small next to Giancarlo. ARod may be two inches shorter, but he does not look small next to him! Giancarlo will put a hurting on this park for years to come.
So are his pants, whats up with those things?
I'm a big Arod fan. But I must admit. He looks like 10pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag
You dont know nothing about fashion!!
You guys are funny and wish you looked in the shape of arod who is probably what 43 now he looks solid not sure what you guys are looking at lmao
love Stanton
Alex Rodriguez. We have to split the TV era. Before A-ROD and now with A-ROD. EXCELLENT.
I love Arod. you are doing great ! my favorite player .
A rod looks like he can still play
Que dos leyenda
Good work A Rod
Giancarlo is huge. His swing on the TV doesn't even look like he's hitting it that hard until it goes yard.
I think G and A-Rod have similar leg strength honestly speaking so where they want the ball to go all the power is mostly on their back leg. A lot of players are different. When I played it was the fact that I had to be aggressive in order for the ball to go farther. I liked the way A-rod was studying him. :)
Just imagine if the Yankees had Arod, Judge, Stanton, Sanchez, and Jeter all on the same team 😳
Jeffrey Reyes and Mariano and pettite for the pitchers
OP
A Rod has a great IQ in baseball.. He should be a manager... I always felt that a rod , barry bonds, Pete rose, and tony gwynn would have been great managers
I miss Stanton I want him back in Miami
My friend got to take a picture with Stanton while on duty LAPD.
people can hate A-rod all they want, but like just like bonds Steroids dont improve your decision making and hand eye coordination. A-rod was an all time great hitter with or without the roids which is why its such a disappointment he was using in the mid-late part of his career.
Dude I don't give a shit about roids at all....but they obviously help bat speed and reaction time
"they obviously help bat speed and reaction time". No. Bat speed? Yeah obviously you're strong youre gonna be able to swing it faster. Reaction time? no. Anabolic steroids are for muscle growth and development, it has absolutely nothing to do with ones vision and mental processing. It that were the case not just athletes would take steroids.
Injuries play a big role with steroid use; not only for power
One Buffalo no he wasn’t thats where you’re wrong bud. Arod was juicing since highschool . Hr juiced through his whole pro career. He played baseball in Florida which is notorious for juicing up athletes to make them pro. You’re kidding yourself if you deny that. He doesn’t belong in the hall of fame either
RiseAbove 756 the reason he took steroids was cuz he got a big contract from the Yankees and wanted to live up to that money. Y do u guys think he was hitting like 40 HRs a season with the Yankees?
ARod The GOAT 🐐 don't @ me
Pujols>>>> Aroid
Top 10 fo sho. Barry is the GOAT 🐐 ... Trout is coming, though! Had to @ ya 😂
if we including roided up players bonds is the goat no debate
This was riveting
FYI - everyone hates ARod. Giancarlo Stanton...what a beast. I couldn't imagine trying to strike him out. Trying to find a weak zone for him...as a pitcher I would hyperventilate when he just steps on deck.
Alex is such a great instructor. And it's amazing how he makes the players he interviews into instructors. Alex is like Madden for Baseball.
Where can I get that falcon shirt?
El mejor de todo los tiempo el señor alex Rodrigues y viene otro yancarlos el montro
A rod is damn classic
Lets go Yankees !!
I thought ARod was big. Giancarlo is huge!
Alex doing a good job
A-Rod is awesome.
They are playing golf this weekend ! 🤣
Oh big G
These Yankees players are ripped af even a-rod.
Wow, number 3 (ARod) and number 4 ( Big G) to 400 homers. Arod was/is a student of the game. Hey Big G, i hope you have a monster 2024,i'm in your corner. along with Judge, Soto, Dominguez, and Rizzo.We are waaaayyy overdue for another title.
I knew he had changed his stance. People where talking about it a month ago and they were saying his stance look a little different from the beginning of this season. They would ask him during post game and he was just like nah I haven't done nothing. Lol!!!
So the middle in 3 ball, 92 mph 4 seamer will fly 500 ft
No the 92mph he was speaking on is velocity...how fast it comes off his bat
@@ygamltd8212 No, he was definitely talking about the speed of the pitch...
@@trevoradams9770 your correct I listened again.....usealyy wen they say velocity it's how fast the ball is coming off the bat
A-rod on a roll
Taint rods batting tips include a fresh needle before the game.
Only thing keeping the Yankees from being unstoppable is pitching rn. I’m glad that we can hit homers at any moment but we need pitching desperately.
I’m not the only one who was just looking a Giancarlo arms
people if you were once hated don't give up eventually people will like you A Rod was the most hated person and look at him working for ESPN and everybody loves him now
Any sneaker heads? What shoes are G wearing? The look pretty dope
A-Rod has been great as a broadcaster. Maybe he was a bit of an a-hole during his playing days but he was a competitor and one of the greatest hitters of all time. Steroids or not, you need to be great to do what he did.
compare him in april/summer vs now when he's slumping hard. his front leg was bent and he was hitting much better. today his leg is stiff as a board and it took him 100 at bats to hit 2 home runs. when his leg is bent he looks like he can hit anything. when it's straight like now he looks bored at the plate and content with striking out
A Rod is a scientist 🤙
Arod just know what questions to ask.
Hey mlb and espn just turn these into detail
Who you guys got A-Rod vs. Big-G?
Stanton like, Don't make me give up secrets bruh.
Red Sox and Yankees ALCS please and thank you:) also. I wish a rod never left the Mariners. He was at his best all around with them. Steroids or not.
John & Alyssa Henson he was the shit back in Seattle. Griffey arod Buhner Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez. I loved that team.
John & Alyssa Henson he wasn’t on steroids in Seattle, in Seattle he was just focused on playing everyday. It’s when he got to Texas with pudge that he started doing steroids
If the Redsox finish with the best record in the AL, and the Yankees win the wild card game. They would face each other in the ALDS, not ALCS
+Baller Life He's been on roids since he met Canseco at 17 years old.
Who else sees that guy with the mets jersey behind Stanton 5:33
Victor Lopez Any Yankees fans!!😁
He needs to play the field everyday have Greg Bird DH since he has earned it as of late and Stanton needs to start at LF or RF and have Andjuar try his hand at 1b or 2B and stick Walker or Ronald at 3b maybe even call up Wade or Florial up if possible to have a lefty option on the bench
Arod is the man
Hi my mom loves baseball
She also loves bbc
Calvin C 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀
U forgot to take the base out
4:05 😂
when is giancarlo coming back from injuries, I looked at the injured players list but it did not give a time
Yooo where can I buy that shirt that big G is wearing?
Do you think ARod’s shirt is unbuttoned because he’s always choking?
A-Rod made a serious transition. See most of the PED guys retire and disappear or behind the scenes somewhere. A-Rod is the face of his company. He part owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves. He’s trying to be the first PED guys to get into the Hall of Fame. Sooner or later he’ll get the call. If not he’s still will be rich.
I'm a diehard basketball fan but I started watching baseball a week ago, I go for New York in basketball so is it bandwagon if I go for the Yankees or should I go for the Mets?
dude just go for the yankees. The Mets are a mess of a franchise and on trash talking circles (MLBTrashTalkers on ig), us west coast fans view the Mets as LOLMets so yeah unless you want to suffer as fan, go for the yanks.
Unless you want to join the Dodgers fandom. That's cool
A good big boy
Wow they let ARod repair his image pretty fast!! I wonder how long before they show Colin Kaperknick in a positive light?
Roy Sears horrible comparison lol
Roy Sears colin is absolutely nothing athletically compared to arod
tiger22...perfect comparison!! One guy cheated baseball!! Got caught cheating!! Lied about everything!! That guy is allowed to repair his reputation!! The other guy took a stance against the police killing of un-armed black people in the US!! That guy took millions of his own money to help worthy causes accross the World!! That guy got Banned by the NFL!! That guy has a racist azz President bringing up his name in order to incite Hate at his rally's!! No the comparison is spot on
Vagtastic Voyage....Ok when was the last time they gave Barry Bonds an opprtunity to talk baseball?
CJP...stop spreading lies!!!
I didn't realize Stanton was taller and bigger than A-Rod, A-Rod always looked like a monster on TV and Stanton on TV to me looked to be an average sized player, who knew.
Alex love's baseball
A Rod is made for this shit. And he was made for the Hall Of Fame as well. Make it happen
27 rings bro
@4:15 i thought he said ill still be playing if i could get that bitch 😂😂😂😂😂😂
A-rod has all the tools
A rod look like he's about 6.5 to 6.4 feet tall
Gian carlos face look like the rock 😲😂
Arod taking tips from Mike
Please tell me Stanton has a cup on in this vid😂😳
Stanton will take a middle-in 92 please, with a side of straight. 😁
How good is Alex (retired)
Ok so I read a book behind the secret of the yankees and it says that when judge strikes put 5 times they dont boo him bc hes been with nyy but when he strikes out the boo him bc he was on the Marlins some nyy fans are so stupid dont boo staton hes part of your team god!!! But when judge strikes put you blame it on the pitcher but when Stanton does they blame it on him dont boo him shut it
Hated ARod as a player. And I mean HATED. But this ARod in a suit doing interviews and almost being an ambassador of the game? I love this ARod.
