A-Rod = the Wal-Mart of MLB

There's a great quote in ESPN Page 2 writer Nate Silver's article "Baseball's Most Valuable Players." He suffices his presentation of the #3 spot (behind the Mets David Wright and the Cardinals Albert Pujols) to the New York Yankees third basemen Alex Rodriguez by saying,
Rooting for Alex Rodriguez is a bit like rooting for Wal-Mart, or the Brazilian soccer team, or … well … the New York Yankees.
...or the Evil Empire. Nice work, Nate. Stick it to the man.
