Jeter 1000 hits short of the Hit King. Can he catch him?

[Bcatswin]

What is your argument? I say no and of course im a little biased. Just think it will be tough for him to do health wise.

[jjgold]

not even close

Jeter lucky to get 600 more hits and that is a huge stretch

[Bcatswin]

Wow, coach is sharp

[yisman]

He will not even get 4,000 IMO.

[Ratzz]

never/ likely not even 300 more.

[easyliving]

He wants to get this badly and I think he plays until he passes it.

[Br0nxer]

no chance

ends with 36 hundred something

next year or year after he returns from offseason a shell of himself

can't beat father time-he is undefeated

[dlunc3]

He needs to be tested for roids

[Chi_archie]

nope

[Louisvillekid1]

I wouldn't doubt the kid, but it's unlikely...

Has been an absolute joy to watch over the years...

And I hate the Yankees, just appreciate greatness...

[Boner_18]

Yes. Can I be elected president? Yes.

Will he? Nope. He wont play for another team and the Yankees wont pay him to DH. I agree he ends ~3500.

Idk about that... Jeter is a baseball icon, but moreso he's a Yankee icon.. if he says he can still play after this contract into his 40s, they will pay him.

Since when are they not tough as nails when it comes to contract negotiation. If HE agrees to play for peanuts, sure.

[Chi_archie]

wasn't there almost a stale mate in contract negotiations this past comtract?

[Brock Landers]

wasn't there almost a stale mate in contract negotiations this past comtract?

yep..diminished skills clause, Ala Frank Thomas

[Boner_18]

Yeah they stonewalled him and he buckled. They aint gonna bend over backwards to pay him more just so he can limp to the hit record.

[lakerboy]

Jeter almost always does what he says. He said he would play ino his 40's. I think he gets 4000 for sure.

[Kindred]

If he stays on the roids he should have no problem..Just assuming it's roids behind the great year he is having.

Derek Jeter doesn't even belong in the same sentence as Pete Rose.

[face]

max bet that -1600 bitch for $200.00 and pick up your $12.50 in 3 years

no thanks. jeter is great but 991 more hits or whatever it is is just too much

[yisman]

jeter won't make it but that wager is ridiculous. They're holding your money for years.

[chico2663]

as a uc fan, this may be the dumbest question i ever heard!

[benjy]

Only if he pays to play somewhere else than NY. Even hitting .300 ish he'll have a heck of a time finding the AB's to get there.

[alling]

Sure as long as he keeps taking roids.

[5teamparlay]

- D. Jeter singled to shallow right Hit 3285

[InTheDrink]

yes

same game that arod overtakes bonds

[5teamparlay]

yes

same game that arod overtakes bonds

As AROD hits 647...

[KingKuntry]

poll: bcatswin one green hat away from being the new fighting irish mascot, will he get it?

[Bostongambler]

200 hits for the next 5 years avg. I'd love to see him do it, but I would have to say he gets maybe 300-500

[InTheDrink]

As AROD hits 647...

the drinker is sharp as a fukkin blade

Hail to the Hit King, and I voted NO.

[ZetaPsi808]

Jeter is just another reason why the yankees are the greatest baseball franchise ever

and one of the greatest franchises in all of american sports

[5teamparlay]

- D. Jeter singled to shallow left center, J. Nix scored Hit 3290....

[DMB40]

Derek Jeter doesn't even belong in the same sentence as Pete Rose.

Cause jeter never bet on baseball yea I can agree with you.
