And there are 3400 hits by Jeter, if he wasn’t a hall of famer he would be an afterthought.

3400 hits is overrated. Also thats like saying Keith hernandez was a better defender than Big papi, you cant compare the best to the worst.

I know, it's crazy right!

🤡

There's a channel called MLB Vault. Go to playlists and look for the one named Hideki Matsui and there's quite a few good ones there. There's also a channel called SW561 that posted mlb highlights from every game in 2007 across baseball, including Yankees clips of course. Also you can just look up Yankees games from 2007 and some will show up there too

I looked around on KZbin and found a lot of old games. If you type in "Yankees 2007" and look around they'll be games you can watch. Also KZbin Channel "SW561" has tons of old SportCenter highlights, definitely check that channel out!

What’s a janitor defensive SS?

Thanks dude!! Gonna have 2007 and 2008 coming up soon! (2007 has some real nice plays)

Ya I can do that. I'll probably make videos for the remaining years of his career/Jump Throw Compilations first though!

😂😂😂😂😂😂 hater

​​@@CharlesCarter-g5wStatistics prove him right , nobody as bad as Jeter has played SS long enough to accrue a Defensive WAR as bad as his

Jeter might have made a few errors but nobody has made plays like him, Nobody has recreated the flip play. He was the first person to invent the jump play he’s the goat

@@SantinoLuce-xy7srthe flip play was debunked he was safe

@SantinoLuce-xy7sr Idk, if you watch the replay, the camera angle from the 3rd base side, it looks like Posada swipes Giambi's right knee as his foot is just hovering over home plate lol. Either way it's way too close to say. He's not obviously out but he's not obviously safe either. And even in today's game with instant replay, there's not enough to overturn the call so he most likely would have still been out if it happened today. If Giambi slides, he would have been safe, but that's not Jeter's fault haha. It still goes down as one of the best and most unique plays in baseball. Sure it's not a crazy diving catch or anything, but I've never seen a play like that at home plate before and still haven't to this day. Where as a great diving catch happens every day.

Thanks man!!

You may be right, but I've always hated this argument cuz it's just a "what if" scenario. It's not what happened, he played on the Yankees when they were the last true baseball dynasty (No team has won back-to-back WS since them, and it's been 23 seasons now!) So yes, he had more chances to have memorable playoff moments cuz of that, but he still had to consistently perform well in the playoffs to make those happen where most players seem to fall flat, especially in NY. And keep this in mind, Jeter led the 1998 Yankees (arguably the best team ever) and the 1999 Yankees in WAR by far! (3rd best in defensive WAR on the 98' team). So he didn't just play on the last dynasty team, he was the most valuable player on that team 2 years in a row. You don't get that by being just a "normal" player. I understand he wasn't hitting 50+ HR's every year, but he was still an extremely valuable player for the last true baseball dynasty team. That's worth something. Just my 2 cents lol.

@breadandcircuses8127 Yes, agreed. Everything in NY becomes amplified since it's such a big stage. Especially if you're winning the world series all the time like that, they treat you like a king! Jeter was very lucky, he was at the right place at the right time. Also, some players seem like they have a tougher time in NY with the media spotlight and the pressure from the fans. So it's impressive that he was able to thrive in that environment for 2 decades!

SO TRUE!

He had a great arm, even the great Ozzie Smith talks about it in the video.

He's making routine plays. He made a couple great plays in his career, but over a long career you'd expect that. Overall, he was a liability with his glove, and he should have moved to 3rd when the Yanks had their first shot at getting Rodriguez. He's my least favorite of the Yankees from the late 90s runs.

He did man shortstop like no other. He accumulated the most negative defensive value of any player in MLB history. Oh but he did the jump throw that one time so it’s okay.

@breadandcircuses8127 What is that even supposed to mean? Was he slow? Nope. Did he have a weak arm? Nope. This is something that's impossible to prove as you'd have to measure everything from the speed of the hit ball to the position the player was in relative to it. It's just a troll.

At least 'a casual' can be objective about his limitations, unlike Jeter fanboys.

nah, casuals are the ones that think he did have it, the stats speak for themselves

Vizquel was insane at defense! Jeter's better/top plays of 2000 are in Part 1 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqKYpZ-qgNZpd6s
