Derek Jeter Strikeout Thread

[Lemon Harang Pie]

Just amazing.

"It's actually a good thing that Jeter is a strikeout artist."

Unreal.

Strikeout artist?

Derek Jeter is high on the strikeout list because he has 12,000 plate appearances.

It's not like his rate stats are especially bad.

 

[HammerDown]

He has 1 K thru 3 already.

"He doesn't strike out that much"

I don't think anyone doubts he is an above average player.

Jeter is very lucky the Yankees kept him at short stop all these years.... His stats are right on par with Hall of Famer Barry Larkin.

I was hoping he'd strikeout 10 times tonight to climb up the list.

This weather blows.

"But they were productive strikeouts."

 

[navamind]

Jeter strikes out 3 times and the Yankees lose. Coincidence? I think not.

"I feel good," Jeter said. "If you feel good, the hits will come."

The fastball stat's a pretty telling one. Of course, he goes 2-4 with a double after this article. Seen any "is Jeter returning to old form?" articles lately?

Jared Weaver's fastball was topping out at 85 last night. Jeter GIDP in the 8th with the game tied and the bases loaded.

And I can imagine the announcer's reaction.

"And on to the 9th we go!"
