Message: [QUOTE="Husky pride, post: 5310141, member: 4841"] Derek Jeter over-rated? Let’s take a look. A career .310 hitter with 3,465 hits placing him among the all-time leaders in hits, doubles, walks and runs scored. Totally clutch in the playoffs with a .308 average, 20 home runs and 111 runs scored. Played 20 seasons with the Yankees leading them to five World Series titles and personally earning 14 All-Star selections. Inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot ( unanimously, but for one vote). Was he the best shortstop of all times—probably not due, in part, to his defensive shortcomings and the fact that he’d be competing with such SS greats as Honus Wagner, Cal Ripken, Jr. and others…but his offensive numbers, clutch performances and leadership qualities certainly ranks him high among them. Over-rated! You gonna be kidding!!!! [/QUOTE]
