It Must Be Nice to Have Such An Inflated View of Yourself

In yesterday's Yankees- Tigers game, Ivan Rodriguez was hit by a pitch in possible retaliation for the the plunking of Alex Rodriguez the night before. Tiger Bobby Higginson said, "No question. He's our best player. Alex is their best player. That's baseball. I just know. I've been here nine years, and I'm usually the one that has to get hit."

Um, excuse me? This is coming from a guy who has averaged 13 homers, 62 rbis, and a .262 batting avg. over the past three years. The best player on the team? I think not. The most overpaid? Definitely.
