05/24: Jeter the Owner; Matsui on Jeter
Just a couple of Jeter related stories. From
Tyler Kepner:
My favorite story, by far, is this one by my pal Andrew Marchand: Derek Jeter wants to be an owner someday. I can guarantee that Jeter would be a completely different owner than George Steinbrenner, for one critical reason: Steinbrenner is a pessimist by nature, and Jeter is an optimist.
Matsui on Jeter from
Peter Abraham:
“Derek transcends leadership,” Hideki Matsui told me through his translator, Roger Kahlon. “I have played with many great players with the Yankees and Giants but nobody like Jeter. He runs, he hits, he fields and he plays well in the clutch. He is truly a great player.”
