Age catches up to everyone. AV has already beat the odds by a LONG shot, but there's no beating the clock forever. My first baseball hero was Willie Mays, to this day, the most exciting and talented player I've ever seen. It broke my heart to see him playing beyond his time and embarrassing himself and all his fans. AV needs to get out before the fans all turn against him. He cost us game 1 and he nearly cost us game 2. It's time to go. Better to get out a little too soon than a little too late.
