In an age where teams have revolving door personnel you'd like a little stability so as Sienfeld said you're not just rooting for laundry. My long range hop is that DJ sees the big picture and comes to an undestanding with management as to when the time is right for him to switch positions Every good team needs a standard bearer and DJ fits the bill perfectly.

Too bad the Jeter y'all worship played his last game almost a decade ago. Since 2000 it has been one failure after another--with a payroll that dwarfs the economy of most of the G-20. And even if Derek isn't to blame for the failures of others, he, and Joe Torre, will always be responsible for The Collapse against the Sox. Real leadership would have pulled that plane out of a nose-dive before it hit Earth in the most memorable collapse in post-season sports, ever--in any sport. So Yankee fans--acknowledge that even Babe Ruth was replaced, and move on! Nice defense of Derek Jeter. Too bad the Jeter y’all worship played his last game almost a decade ago. Since 2000 it has been one failure after another–with a payroll that dwarfs the economy of most of the G-20.

And even if Derek isn’t to blame for the failures of others, he, and Joe Torre, will always be responsible for The Collapse against the Sox. Real leadership would have pulled that plane out of a nose-dive before it hit Earth in the most memorable collapse in post-season sports, ever–in any sport.

So Yankee fans–acknowledge that even Babe Ruth was replaced, and move on!
