@@TheHossman27 any player who has ever won a WS has had help. Thank you for stating the obvious. Jeter was at the epicenter of an influx of young talent that completely turned around the Yankees organization
crazy how identical his career is to Kobe's in the NBA from being drafted in 96 to winning young and their last game being a memorable ending. RIP Kobe.
Kinda disrespectful to kobe tbh jeter was a slap hitter but he did hit like .310 for his career but he’s the worst defensive player of all time in a premium defensive position
Another reason he's a Yankees legend: His #2 was the last single digit number to be retired. The others: Billy Martin(1), Babe Ruth(3), Lou Gehrig(4), Joe DiMaggio(5), Joe Torre(6), Mickey Mantle(7), Yogi Berra(8), Bill Dickey(8), Roger Maris(9). That is absolutely Yankees legend status.
@@thekidruss Only 2 Yankees have ever been #0 while 31 players in all of MLB have had that number. I'm not sure why it's so uncommon but I've never heard it counted among single digit jersey numbers.
@@cjtrules1 Just because it is uncommon doesn’t take away from the fact that zero is indeed a single digit number that has yet to be retired by the Yankees.
He has the best memory of anyone I've ever seen, they say Greg Maddox can remember signing an autograph in 1997 today, he wouldn't sign for the same person twice, could be bullshit, Jeter signed 16 baseball cards for me in Savannah Ga when he was 17, he played for the Greensboro Hornets, from what I've heard, he would remember me today, I sure wish I could ask him, he was by far the nicest kid on Earth, he didn't have to, he stood and talked to me for a good 12 to 15 minutes, if I live to be a 100, I'll never forget it, THE CAPTAIN
For the fans who think players are over paid.....me included...this guy jeter earned his $$$$$ ...I’m not ,never was a yankee fan but,jeter is and was a player that never layed down even when tired on the field....A TRUE ATHLETE AND PROFESSIONAL...HARD TO COME BY THESE DAYS.
IRONIC HOW MR Bob Shepherd iconic voice is still being used to intro Derek. But when Mr shepherd passed away Derek blew off the funeral and fibbed about it. Other than that the man DJ is pristine and flawless
That is ridiculous on every level... he wasn't even the greatest at anything while he wad playing... half the time he wasn't even the best shortstop on the team...they just respected and invested in him enough to tell A rod to move over when he came on...
@@mordecaidrake He wasn't a home run hitter. He def was a very good fielder and always hit around 300 every year. Griffey was way better in his prime imo and I am a huge Yankees fan. It was his baseball iq that was extremely high.
@@papasmurf9477 no venom just facts.... and i won't be watching anything about Jeter... baseball is boring af and watching people talk about it is even more boring... enjoy the show 😃 🤣 😂
@@mordecaidrake you sound like a dude who got dumped by his girlfriend, and is trying to show that it doesn't hurt 😪. Bro what did Jeter do to you🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
Those Yanks should've won 3 more....2001, then Florida, and to the series after being up 3 - 0 to the Red Sucks. Mariano blew the 2001 7th game in the 9th, and at least one important Red Sucks game....I believe game 4. The Florida series I don't even remember. There should be 30 flags over the stadium.
DJ is a great leader and legend. Let's also recognize that, in a league famous for it's lack of parity, he happened to be on a franchise that was absolutely committed to winning, paying for all the talent int he world, etc, in order to be competitive every year. He just was the face of it. Let's put it this way, if we put A-Rod on the yankees in 1995, he'd probably have a fistful of rings too.
Yeah but he was easily offended and broke team chemistry How the hell did he not know he needed to get better and how does it come down to the GM of all staff telling him that
Just what we needed: another retired Yankee that we never stop hearing about. What is it about the Yankees that they must always be the subject of so much hype. Derek Jeter was a very good ballplayer who played a very long time on some very good teams. But he was not all that special - Average fielder. Average speed. Average power. Solid, consistent, hitter. 0 MVPs I'd have taken the Colorado Rockies Troy Tulowitzki over him in Tulo's prime !
@@lavellrobinson1648 Rated the worst Short stop in the time he played based on the new war system they have. Actually rated one of the worst defense players in that time period. Was a slap hitter and yes playing that many years as a slap hitter you better get 3'000 hits. Yes he had a few cool plays in the playoffs that people remember but if your in the playoffs every year because of the team your on its bound to happen. 98 percent of the team he's cheering on someone else that did something great in the playoffs if you look back,, roles players,, and the other every day players. Etc. I'm a die hard Yankee fan be in a realistic person and never got the hype at the end of his career,, he was average,,, below even. Just because you say and do all the right things doesn't make you a great baseball player,, great guy sure and that is where people get confused I think. Hope this helps
Stats r never the full story. Look at bonds and trout. Never won. Id take a hit over A strikeout any day. Arod never won without jeter. While intangibles shouldnt way that much on winning, at the pro level it does bc when u play with the best, u have to have the mental strength and confidence. Bonds stats was the value of 5 players, but jeter team mentality rubs off up and down the 40 man roster. Asking for max contract, putting blame via the media, all affects how others play. Still with that said. Jeters numbers in the playoffs was no slouch. More hrs than trout and bonds combined. Theres a reason why other baseball players say good things about Jeter.
@@_____0__ Jeter did nothing in 2009. Yes A rod is a douchebag but he is on another level as far as playing baseball then Jeter. A rod won that championship for the Yankees in 2009 period,, yes Godzilla helped a lot in the WS but A rod got them there basically by myself. I like Jeter and I'm glad he was a Yankee,, good average slap hitter and a below average Short stop. Actually rated the worst defense player in his time frame from the new war system,, look it up,, Just because you say and do the right things does not make you a good baseball player,, good guy sure. I hate A rod and like Jeter but I don't get it with him. Average,, maybe even below average player.
@@_____0__ like look at emmit smith to take this farther or frank gore,,, number one and 3rd rushing yards or all time,, but they are not even in the top 35 running backs of all time.

Hope this helps
Your not serious, The only Nyy in history to have 3000 hits, I guess everybody can do that? 5 rings? I hate the Yankees but good grief, I can name some overrated players, lol
The Captain. The Legend. The man who led the NY Yankees back to the topermost.

Derek Jeter Will Always Be A New York Yankees Legend As The Greatest Baseball ⚾ Player Of All Time.
Keep up the hard work 💪🏿 #RESPECT
Never really understood how good we had it. Wish I went to more Yankee games during these years.

Lol it’s baseball. A game where half the time you sit in a hut eating peanuts
Less demanding than bowling or golf
Baseball icon mixed breed.
Any chance that a "The story behind..." for Ichiro will eventually be in the works? Would really like to see your take on his journey
Tremenda parte de su historia y grandes hazañas deportivas y que tal hace el capitán hoy en día hasta siempre capitán Jeter .
My biggest hero growing up. Such a class act. Number 2!
Class act. ? Do you know him
Great piece for a class act, Capetian is a fitting name Ford him
Fab doc, bro!

As a Giants fan, Buster Posey always reminded me of a Diet Jeter. Derek Jeter Jr. 😅 That’s what I hoped anyway!
Y’all should do one of these on arod
I'm saying that as an M's fan!
Crazy to think that if Jeter wasn't good enough, Steinbrenner would of traded away one of the greatest closers to ever grace the game.
Ewww the fact Jeter has something to do with baseball and it’s NOT part of the Yankees is an absolute sin.
Captain my Captain…

Jeter, one of the most overrated players at his position. Below average defensively and an above average hitter.
This looks like the most boring sports doc of all time
So overrated it makes me sick. Rated the worst Short stop in his time playing and was a slap hitter.
