I’m sorry, Why has Jeter played in so many post season games? And why does he have more hits than any other player in post season history? I’ll let you brain trusts answer that for yourselves.

So Jeter has been less valuable stretched out over more games? So that makes A-Rod even better?

this was a pointless blog. DAVID hit it right on the head. you can’t compare jeters postseason numbers with a-rods because of how many more games jeter has played. plain and simple.

No love for Jeter from me, but I was wondering how A-rod’s post-season numbers as a YANKEE stack up?
Because I think we all know that Yankees fans aren’t going to care about his post-season numbers before he got to them.

I know this is going to get a lot of “psh another obscure stat that doesn’t mean anything”, but also worth noting is that in Derek “Captain Clutch” Jeter’s whopping 134 postseason games, he’s amassed a paltry -.36 win probability added (yes, that’s negative) and A-Rod, in just over 1/3 as many games (50), has amassed a positive win probability added of 1.83. Also, just sayin’.
