Derek Jeter IS the Yankees. The guy leads that team, he plays as hard as anyone in the majors every single day, he is clutch, and he has seniority. And if A-Rod is that much better defensively, all the more reason to have him move, he can better adjust. Derek Jeter is much more than his stats, he makes that team play hard and not just rely on their amazing talent. Ryan Freel is the only guy I can think of who would have made that play diving into the stands that he made, and Jeter didn't take out an old lady.
And I don't even like the Yankees.
