Yes, you managed to pull the worst year in Jeter's career and compare it to the best in a mediocre player's. Awesome, is this what passes for baseball knowledge?

Anyway, arguing with idiots is fun and all, and Jeter's season may be more indicative of future performance but it's hard to tell. We are talking about a guy who one year ago had an OPS+ of 125, WAR of 6.2. Scutaro has only had an OPS+ over 100 once in his entire career. Plus, more people are buying Jeter jerseys and he gives them a good image. My point really wasn't that he is going to put up great numbers, but more that it's silly for the Yanks to pull the poor us card now when they are probably still paying Pavano and Karsay.
