Looking back on it, 2011 was a powerful affirmation that Jeter's not done yet, not even close. He pretty much exceeded everyone's highest expectations and I think he'll be even better in 2012. He's only scratched the surface of his extra-base hit potential.

Gotta give you credit. This one is funny even for you. Jeter slugged under .400 for the second time in three seasons and he's "scratching the surface of his extra-base hit potential?"

Got bored and figured you'd throw out something incredibly stupid to see if you could get a response?

He has it in him. I think he's gotten used to being a 'tablesetter' and that's OK because he's made a hall of fame career out of getting 200 hits and 70+ walks a season. What Cashman needs to do is say "Jetes, we can't count on ARod and Tex to provide all the power anymore. We need you to hit more home runs." And Jetes will figure out a way to do it.

Could you have Cashman ask him to cure cancer and fix the economy while he's at it? I'm sure Jetes can work that into his schedule ... SINCE HE'S NOT TIED UP BY PLAYING IN THE WORLD SERIES!

They should be playing. I guess the best record in the AL doesn't mean anything.

Well by this standard the Yanks shouldn't have made the WS in 1996, 2000 or 2001. Care to confirm that belief?

I'm just surprised you didn't blame Kevin Long for Jeter's inability to hit for power

I don't mind if Texas wins, they're due. New York will be back in the World Series next year.

I'm sure the Mets will be there ...

Nelson Cruz is now on my Christmas wish list.

Cashman, make it happen!!!

Re: Running Derek Jeter Thread

The fact that you think the Rangers will give him up after this postseason is laughable. But so has every other post you've made here.

I didn't say it would be easy, just that I want the Yankees to get him.

By the way, the Yankees let a World Series MVP walk away a few years ago. It's not unprecedented.
