Default Who can you compare Derek Jeter going back to 1869.

Brian--I have to disagree with you about Vaughan and Ripken. First, Vaughan finished his career in 1946 but was only inducted into the HOF in 1985. He had decent stats but obviously not many of his contemporaries thought of him as a HOFer. We've all seen Ripken play and he isn't close to the player Jeter is. He showed up every day. Other than that he is a marginal HOFer at best.
