Derek Jeter Will Miss Most of Season

Derek Jeter recracked the bone in his ankle and will be out at least until after the All Star break. Huge disappointment for the Yankees.

Huge disappointment for baseball in general. That stinks.

OT but that is an awesome avatar, Eric.

Yeah, I'm pretty bummed. You can probably toss out any remote chance he has at the Hit record now.

He's at that age, your body just doesn't bounce back from injuries like that anymore. Wonder if he pushed it too much in rehab, trying to get back.

Here's a cool scouting report made when he was 17 by the Rockies.

I played in a MABL league back in 1996 with a guy who played HS ball with Jeter. He swore that there was another guy on their team that was better than Derek, but that the scouts all saw something the kids didn't. Guess the scouts knew what they were talking about.

Cool Scouting report from 1992, thanks for sharing.
