Gold Glover Jeter, Best SS Evah!!!, robbed of MVP Topic

If I'm Leyland, I don't match Verlander up with CC again.  CC's the only starter that has the potential to out-pitch Verlander. Since they're only going to get one more start a piece now, Leyland should be "conceding" CC's start and load his rotation to take advantage of other matchups.

JETER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did you really cheer a strikeout?
I think it's more the fact that Jeter got on base from it, after the Tigers' fastest player just turned and walked his *** back to the dugout in the same situation the previous inning.  Even Magglio ran his out. I hope Leyland tore a strip off Jackson.

Yup. I get it.

I wouldn't discount CC in game 2 just yet.   Dude is a horse.   I think tonight's game might decide whether that happens or not.

I wonder if a team gets a say in the re-scheduling.  I have to think some teams would prefer a doubleheader over losing their travel day.

No.  MLB has TV time to contend with.

If I'm CC I'm demanding a Game 2 start so I can pitch Game 5. But Burnett will still get a start. They're playing 4 straight games; there's no way Nova is pitching Games 1 and 4.

Honus OPS+, 154
Jeter OPS+, 117

Ruth on Wagner:
"At shortstop there is only one candidate, the immortal Honus Wagner. He was just head and shoulders above anyone else in that position. Fellows like Marion, Bancroft, Peck, and Billy Jurges were all great fielders. But Honus could more than out-field all of them...."

Anyone with half a brain on Jeter:
"He clearly has the defensive tools to be an average or above-average left fielder if he can read flyballs off the bat."

Ruth was a known drunk who never saw Jeter play.  

Case closed.

You want to respond to the OPS+ numbers?

What am I saying, of course you don't.

I could OPS 150+ if everyone in the field wore one of these, pitchers threw 150 pitches in every start and worked the farm in the off-season:
