[HookersandIceCream]

Barry Larkin better

Just Slightly

.304.388.468 .856 125 OPS+

Jeter has a better Average
OBP
Very very similar power
Exact OPS But loses out in OPS+

 

[SpursFanSinceNovember2017]

Outside of batting average, I have no idea what those numbers mean.

 

[same damn lo sweater]

shortstop used to be the worst position for hitters. ripken was way more advanced than his peers, but yeah jeter's numbers & longevity are crazy

 

[holidayinn21]

offensively jeter is up there, but his defense is the reason I only have him as the 5th best SS, and I'd have him lower if yount's shoulder didn't cause him to move to the outfield.

1.ripken
2.a-rod
3.ozzie
4.larkin
5.jeter

edit: nomar was a fukking monster before the injuries.

Jeter gets on base a lot. As much as power hitters
His SLG% means he hit for power from SS which generally is a weak power positions
And his OPS/OPS+ is really high for the position he plays, even overall

 

[Mensch Fontana]

Whats tejadas and furcals numbers

 

[Captain Crunch]

Jeter was the 2nd best SS of his era.
ARod the GOAT SS, his Texas/Seattle years

 

[JAY?]

Jeter was average at ss
He was sure-handed
Didn't make much errors, but that's because he had no range to get to the ball
He was Rafael Palmero, a compiler
But he was clutch, he came thru when u needed it
The play at the plate against Oakland was great
But the play where he went into the stands is retardedly over rated

 

[Dat Migo]

No Wagner?

 

[HookersandIceCream]

No Wagner?

He played like a million years ago
And the title clearly says fellow shortstops

Whats tejadas and furcals numbers

Miguel Tejeda

.294/.343/.471/.815 114 OPS Very solid numbers

Rafeal Furcal
.281/.344/.410/.75497OPS+

What does that even mean

He gets on base well above average and hits for more power than the average shortstop
In his prime he was one of the better hitters in baseball

 

[Spy]

A Rod is the GOAT SS.

 

[JAY?]

What does that even mean

He gets on base well above average and hits for more power than the average shortstop
In his prime he was one of the better hitters in baseball

It means that while his numbers are good they were achieved over a long period of time

One of the better hitters in baseball?
That's fukkin retarded
He was never the best shortstop
He was never the best player on his team
Whatever years you think his prime was, there's at least 20 better hitters
