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

Rhys, that is the pretty much the same way I felt about Mattingly in the 80s. Put him on the Twins and Hrbek on the Yankees and we would be hearing about how great a 1B Hrbek and he would have gotten the Gold Gloves that he got and maybe more. The last truely great Yankee was Mantle.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
