Joe "The Show" Mauer Needs to be the home town hero because the whole state of Minnesota is counting on him to lead the Twins to a world series championship, or at least a post-season win. Joe has had success throughout his career with various player achievements.
Joe Mauer is the shinny-star of the minnesota twins. When everyone thinks of him they recall his superb sideburns. Along with those superb sideburns he also has had some superb achievements in his career thus far. He Has won multiple batting titles, an MVP trophy, led all voting for the all-star team, and the biggest contract in franchise history. However, this has little to do with his success in the playoffs. He has never won a playoff game or performed well in the post-season. According to the Article Paging Extraordinary Joe, Joe and Derek Jeter are alike in the way of they are the heros of their team. But Derek actually produces in the playoffs unlike Joe who goes cold when it turns to October. I agree with this totally because Joe is the Home town hero and everyone looks up to him, he should be striving in the playoffs because thats what the team plays for during the regular season, but joe somehow loses it unlike Derek how plays for those moments. Joe needs to step up to the plate during the playoffs because without a superstar quality performance out of him we will have no chance to even compete with those hates Yankees of New York.
Your thesis statement is not clear until your final sentence. If you look at just your first few sentences, it's unclear what overall point you are trying to argue.
