the WORST year Jr. had while a teammate of A-Rod
48 HR ; 134 RBI ; .285 / .384 / .576 (OPS+ 139)
he also won 4 gold gloves and an MVP during that stretch

the BEST season A-Rod had when he was teammates with Jr.
42 HR ; 124 RBI ; .310 / .360 / .560 (OPS+ 136)
did not win any gold gloves nor MVPs

so no, not only was A-Rod not better than Jr. for multiple seasons, but his best season when they were together wasn't even as good as Jr's worst season when they were together.

Lol clown you call 98 A-Rod's best season but then leave out that the fact that's the year he stole 40+ bases

Arod was better then Griffey in 96,

MVP voters disagreed with you for '98 and '99 since Griffey finished higher both seasons (plus the one he won in '97 obviously).

Griffey also won gold gloves all 3 of those years. A-Rod didn't win any.

Griffey also led the AL in HRs 2 of those years. A-Rod didn't do that until after Jr. left

Griffey also beat him in OPS+ and WAR every year but '96.

A-Rod was no doubt great.
but Jr was on another planet at that time.
