The Jeter negotiations

[RC Vikings]

This will be interesting to see where this one ends up. The Yankees are over paying at 3 years and $15 million while Jeter wants $23 million for four or five years. I wonder if Jeter has gotten any other offers and what they were offerings.

The Yankees' offer is already about 50% above market for a 36 year old player who didn't exactly make a case for his longevity by suffering a 20% drop in his OPS compared to 2009.

Yes but his True Yankeeism increased by 20% which more than makes up for that drop in such a stupid and worthless stat like OPS. He is worth at least double what he is asking for.
