The Great Mickey Mantle has to be considered the player to have played the longest for the New York Yankees, with 18 seasons. Although Yogi Berra also played 18 seasons, the Mick had 18 full seasons and leads the Yankees all-time in many categories including Games - 2401, Total Plate Appearances - 9871, and At Bats - 8102. Click on the link below to see all the Yankees all-time leaders. Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera have also played 18 seasons for the Yankees. Also, Jeter is now the all-time Yankees leader in at-bats and plate appearances.
They have a GREAT shot with Mark Texieria, CC Sabathia, and AJ Burnett, of course the rest of them like Derek Jeter and A- Rod. The Yanks have a VERY VERY good shot. The Yankees defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 4 games to 2, to win their 27th World Series Championship.
Derek Jeter, who retired at the end of the 2014 season, had a great work ethic. His advice to himself was to never allow anyone outwork him. He said in an interview that he got his strong work ethic from his dad.
His name is derek because his great great grandpa name was derek.
It's not the degree that gives you a great career. It's the passion for what you do that makes it a great career.
Baseball is a great sport, so there are hundreds of stars, but here're a few: Babe Ruth is the most well-known Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier Barry Bonds has the most homeruns Roberto Clemente was great on and off the field Nolan Ryan may be the best pitcher in the game Hank Aaron has 2nd most homeruns Derek Jeter has been a star with the Yankees for a very long time
While answers would be partially opinion, the following will attempt to be as objective as possible. Shortstop is by far the most difficult and important position in baseball and many marquis players have played the position over the years. There are three different questions with three potential answers for this question; Who is the greatest shortstop of all time?; Who is The Greatest shortstop in the game today?; and Which active shortstop has had the greatest career. The answer to the first one is a matter of debate, and for the sake of accurate comparisons will only involve the modern era (1901-current), but the consensus pick is Honus Wagner of The Pittsburgh Pirates. Wagner was a seven-time batting champion and led the league in RBIs five times, ending his career with an amazing .328/.391/.467 slashline. While not an outstanding defensive player, he was quite capable. Other great shortstops include Ernie Banks of The Cubs, Derek Jeter of The Yankees, Luke Appling of The White sox and Cal Ripkin Jr of The Orioles. For the second question, it would be a matter of opinion. As of last season (2012), Derek Jeter of The Yankees led baseball in hits and produced a very strong .316 batting average. However, while Jeter may have had the best season, it is generally felt that the mantle of best shortstop has been assumed by Troy Tulowitzki of The Rockies (who idolized Derek Jeter as a young player). Tulowitzki is almost certainly the superior player at the moment, however his health has stopped him from becoming the consensus pick for top shortstop. Another option is Hanley Ramirez, who had been moved to third base at the beginning of last season, but who appears to be making a permanent move back to shortstop. Also atop the list is Elivs Andrus of The Rangers, Jose Reyes of The Blue Jays, Ian Desmond of The Nationals and Jimmy Rollins of The Phillies. For the third question, the answer is incredibly obvious; Derek Jeter of The Yankees is without a doubt among the five greatest shortstops in baseball history, and is the only one among them currently playing. He is the all time leader in hits and runs among shortstops and is fifth in home runs, with his numbers still rising.
Great question. Who is the most valuable to his team. Definitely not a pitcher. A rod is a possibility. The Yankees have tons of coin, so a Yankee is possible. Not Jeter. Maybe Puhjols. Who do you think?
I means The Great
In 1995, Derek Jeter played for the New York Yankees. On Base Percentage (OBP) is considered by many to be a better measure of a great hitter than the Batting Average.
