Redskin4ever Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Jeter is definitely overrated as a fielder. But I wouldn't say he is the worst. Did you see any of the Orioles' shortstops this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see any of the Orioles' shortstops this year? Yep. Castro wasn't bad at all. The rest were awful. But this is about Jeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsNoles21 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I read something before the start of the season that states Jeter is the worst fielder in the game ... not because of the bad plays he makes, but because of the percentage of balls he cannot get to. He is unable to make so many plays ... its really costs him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 This 'study' got laughed at on Around the Horn today (literally). I feel pretty much the same. He doesn't have the greatest range - but he's still the clutchest shortstop in the game. I'd take him over pretty much anyone else in the game today at short - of course I do have a little bit of a bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Jeets doesn't pay his taxes or field well. Good to know. But if he catches a popup, takes 3 steps and dives into the crowd, he's 'clutch.' He's the second best SS on his team. No shame in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
