Jeter was the face of the game for his career, who won Championships. Most would agree that Jeter was the Yankee catalyst, on and off of the field. Put him in a Reds uniform, and what you would have had is a better team, a better overall player at shortstop, a winner, and a better team leader. Mediocre? Laughable. Rings matter, and Jeter has a handful. Jeter has as many Championship rings as a player, as the Reds have in their history. Barry Larkin, always a great and respected player, had a lesser fielding percentage than DJ. Sorry, but Derek Jeter also has the all-time greatest middle name, as well. Derek Sanderson Jeter. Stop whining, Jeter didn’t gamble on baseball.

Put him in a Reds uniform and you see my point.
