I am not one to go overboard and proclaim Jeter the best player in MLB, but he is one of the best shortstops, and a terrific player.

Yes, he was is a great SS, but not a great defensive SS. He's like Ernie Banks in that way. But he also is overrated. He's not as good as Nomar, he isn't as good as A-Rod, he isn't as good as Tejada, but many think he is just as good as A-Rod (which is nonsense).

He might be the best number two pitcher in history.

He has competition for that as well. Glavine and Drysdale might have some claims as well .
