[QUOTE="bigbangtheory, post: 3392314, member: 563177"] Yeah you are right , he is opting out. I thought it was the other way around, still no loss for the Yankees. Why would you want to keep someone who is your star player and don't do well? He is no longer in Seattle and just because he did ok one year in the playoffs don't justify all the shitty post season he has endured. I say if someone is going to pay you that much money, you better try your ****dest (made up word FTW!) when it comes crunch time. I guess he is opting out because of the mayhem with Torre being let go and Mariano Rivera? Then I think Posada is leaving as well. I mean NY is gonna have to rebuild if they lose all these players. As far as Jeter goes, he has done decent. He has batted .309 in the playoff. Is not like he is the run producing power hitter like Alex is. You can't even really compare the two players as they are so different. Your talking about a power hitter to a contact hitter. Jeter gets on base, is people like Rodriguez that is supposed to knock them in. When you don't, then you are not doing your job. With all that said, Detriot would have to pay him big money! I would rather spend it somewhere else. Get a good pitcher! Hell Brandon Inge might **** at the plate, but isn't he good with the glove? [/QUOTE]
