I'm confuse about him doesn't have the stats in my book but the voters voted him in so I cant argue


Interesting take.

His career SLG of .565 ranks 12th all time. Walker is one of only 19 hitters in history to accomplish a .300 batting average, .400 on-base percentage (OBP), and .500 SLG with at least 5,000 plate appearances, and one of six whose careers began after 1960.

Correct me if I'm wrong as I wasn't really watching baseball at the time, but from what I've read Jeter wouldn't have won all those gold gloves if he was playing today. He had a safe glove at short and wasn't making many errors, but according to new advanced stats that were not available back then, he wasn't really all that good defensively as he didn't have the best range.



All I know is that watching jeter all of my life I always felt he made errors going for balls other people wouldn’t. He’d get his glove on it and they call it an error. Any jeter slander will be remembered by the man upstairs. Don’t forget that
