that's why I compared his SLG and runs to other AL SS. You think he should be batting #2? I am not an MLB manager, an expert of the Yankees, nor close to that situation. |

As someone with an interest in defending Jeter, however, you never considered why the Yankees might want to bat him, say 7, 8 or 9? And why they haven't? |

As someone with an interest in defending Jeter, however, you never considered why the Yankees might want to bat him, say 7, 8 or 9? And why they haven't? There are a lot of reasons that come into play. A lot of sports teams MLB and others have a tendency to do things for all-time greats that they wouldn't do for others. Do the Yankees have other players that could potentially fit better in the [HASH]2 spot? Possibly. Has Jeter batting in the 2 hole limited success and caused failures? Well they aren't 13 games below .500 and 14 games out of 1st, so I would say no. |

Guy's OBP is worse than crappy Daniel Nava's. Maybe the Yankees might have been in first if they hit him lower in the order and used better OBP guys at the top. Scoring has been a problem for them. If they miss out on the playoffs by a few games, gotta question stuff like this. |

Well again, I am not a big expert on the Yankees...so who do you think they have that are good OBP guys for that 2-whole? I am under the impression the Yankees offense isn't very good at all...thus lowing his run total as well. |

I am under the impression the Yankees offense isn't very good at all...thus lowing his run total as well. he's the effective 4th highest OBP guy on the team behind Gardner, Ells and Tex. When all 3 are healthy, they should be the top 3 in theory, but Tex has been in and out. Which case, if you move Ells to 2nd, who do have hit 3rd? Since McCann and Beltran were suppose to be the middle of the order hammers. But have disappointed and actually have worse OBP's than Jeter. So I don't really agree with frosted flakes assessment here. Even the New comers, Prado and Headley, currently have lower OBPs than Jeter. Yankees are not missing too much with Jeters .329 OBP. Mainly because most Yankee hitters are actually not that great for OBP right now |

Mainly because most Yankee hitters are actually not that great for OBP right now I think Gardner Ells Teix and Beltran make a lot of sense. First two have decent or good OBPs and steal bases. Teix and Beltran are your power. I suppose you could do Jeter number 3, but slap hitting guys tend to hit into the double plays. The problem which I was originally getting at, is the Yankees won't even dare to bat him in the lower third of the order to give it a try as an experiment. Jeter batting 7th?! unheard of. Guy has handcuffed that team. |

You guys say Jeter sucks and Rock calls him a compiler when he is or is about to be [HASH]5 in hits of all time. You have to be stupid or a Red Sox fan to discount that. |

Jeter's had a good year and still is a tough out. Why mess with it now?? Also, Jeter would overrule Girardi if he tried to do that anyway. |

Rock was crying about how anytime a player switches borders like if Stanton came to the Red Sox YAnkees fans would say "He aint no babe ruth." I then pointed out how it is no different from the other end. |
