Past a diving Jeter...shocking...

Fubar - don't read this on your birthday.

Jeter got bailed out last night. Jeter has always been terrible going to his left. Many times you will hear the announcer go past a diving Jeter when a ball is hit up the middle. His range is terrible and it has gotten worse with time. So lets go to last night. The US come back to beat Puerto Rico to reach the semi-finals. Well, they should have not been down in the first place. With the game tied 3-3, a slow ball hit up the middle goes by a diving Jeter, a run scores. Then in the 9th, Jeter misplays a ball up the middle and another run scores. Check out the highlights.

I had trouble embedding the video so here is a link. The highlights run at the top of the article.

Now, what is really upseting is that Jimmy Rollins is DH. WHAT?!?!?!?! Jimmy Rollins should be playing SS. That is a travesty. Just because Jeter is a likeable guy does not mean he should be playing. I would be good for the clubhouse. Sign me to the team!

Furthermore, he never has had good range. Forget about Bonds giving back his MVP trophies. Jeter needs to give back all of his gold gloves. What a joke those are!

ARGH! Play Jimmy Rollins and put Jeter on the bench! What a JOKE!
