I'm finding some of the comments here pretty silly. Lets look at it this way-there are 22 shortstops currently in the HOF:Aparicio, Appling, Bancroft, Banks, Boudreau, Cronin, Davis, Jackson, Jennings, Lloyd, Maranville, Reese, Rizzuto, Sewell, Smith, Tinker, Vaughn, Wagner, Wallace, Ward, Wells and Yount. With the exception of Wagner, and maybe shortstop/first baseman Ernie Banks, who would you rather have than Jeter. I think if Jeter keeps doing what he has been doing he is a first ballot HOFer. BTW, I would take Jeter over soon to be HOFer Cal Ripken any day of the week.
