Well, I dunno about that, but he's certainly one of the best SS's currently playing for the Yankees, if you ignore Soriano, who's fitting in at 2nd pretty nicely. Anyway, being a coach I'm sure you undersand the concept of the team leader, and Jeter fills that role quite well.
Major League Baseball is the place that a good leader is least necessary. It barely qualifies as a team sport. I love baseball, but it's not much more of a team sport than the Ryder Cup.
