Derek Jeter...

[Doug]

I hope he is not around enough to break the hit record.

He'd be a longshot to break Pete's record. DJ can't get 200 hits a year forever. Call it 2900 after this year. If he got 200 a year for the next 4 years ( I doubt that), then 3700 hits and like 39 yo.....still way short and he couldn't still play SS, not a DH type, wouldn't really be good in LF.

I could see 3700 hits tops ( if all goes perfectly), then still 500 hits short....that's 2+ great seasons. He won't get there unless he becomes a player-owner-manager.

He is still a solid player. However, I believe he won his last gold glove on reputation.

Derek Jeter is washed up. Lets face it the last contract was a thank you for your loyalty contract.

He should have received more like 5 million with incentives to make 15 million.

Say what you want about Jeter, but at the end of the day, he's hitting this..

and he could do even better, not that there is anything wrong with that 8 chick.

Every gold glove he's won, he's won at the plate. He's always been an average/below average fielder.
