There is no way Alex Rodriguez can stay off the news. One way or another, he has involved himself in the world of MLB even years after his tenure as a player. Now, in association with FOX News, he has shared some perspectives on a Texan that has gathered mixed reactions from fans. 

When it comes to the New York Yankees, none other than Gerrit Cole stands as a man with a great arm. But quite contrary to common opinion, A-Rod has supported and praised a Texas Ranger. He had a lot to share about this 33-year-old. But is it worth it putting him on the pedestal being a Yankee himself?

Alex Rodriguez Forgets Own Team’s Star Performer

Recently in conversation with Derek Jeter, David Oritz, and another MLB analyst, Alex Rodriguez spoke at length about Nathan Eovaldi. His words had a good backing of 25 years of his observation. He said, “I’ve never seen a better arm, I’ve never seen a better worker”, with that he received some affirmative nods. However, one question remains unanswered. How did he forget the Yankee Gerrit Cole? 

A-rod also highlighted Eovaldi’s impressive record against the Orioles. Given his apparent dominance against the Baltimore Orioles, Eovaldi is the best choice for Tuesday’s Game 3 matchup. The Rangers could be headed for a three-game sweep based on his past performance.

While his contribution remains staggering for the World Series favorite, it is important to note that he was absent for a month due to a right forearm strain. While the Rangers grappled to stay in the form then, they now are backed by Eovaldi’s strength. With that, here’s what the fans had to say. 

Fans Flooded Social Media With Their Tweets

The lovers and haters of A-Rod are not ones to be undermined. There was a flood of comments on Twitter after A-Rod’s opinion on Nathan came out.

Some were in favor of what A-Rod had to say. 

While some bashed him for his opinion of Eovaldi. 

There were fans who were brutal to A-Rod. They said, “He’s lied”.

Some made a meme of Alex Rodriguez seeing him side with the Rangers. 

Amidst the scrutiny, there were predictions of the Rangers’ win. 

With that, the somewhat infamous Alex Rodriguez rubbed the fans the wrong way.
