Derek Jeter.. easily in the top 5 overrated players in MLB of the past 15 to 20 years. Probably right around the top of the heap..
Don't get me wrong.. a very good player, but "The Captain" is not the caliber of player that legends are made of.
A career .300 hitter for the Yankees.. a solid infielder with little average power. But he played for the Yankees.
I loathe the Yankees.. and what they stand for under the Boss.. but I am a Jeter fan.
Just don't idolize him like some do..
