How bad is Derek Jeter's final season?
Posted on 9/16/14 at 9:57 pm

Possibly worst final full-time season for an all-time great ever?
.249 AVG
.298 OBP
.297 SLG
.595 OPS
70 OPS+
-.2 WAR
19 extra base hits/15 GIDP
Any other all-time greats have a final season worse than this? Say cutoff is last season with 120+ games.

Lowest OPS for ANY player in baseball for the month of August

Mantle & Mays final seasons were bad

Lol at you comparing Jeter to mantle and mays.

i dislike jeter as much as anyone on the planet, but every player's final season is awful when not using cattle steroids.

He's ran out of gas these last few months.
And tbh, I think he's kind of checked out mentally. He's just ready for it to be over. You can only motivate yourself so much when the team is so god damn bad and there's almost no chance you can make the playoffs.
The last few weeks have been really rough on him, and he showed his frustration for the first time tonight. I just wish it was over. It's painful.

I'd go with Ron Santo, who played 117 games because of injury- I know he misses your 120 game cut off, but not by leaps and bounds. The difference in Career WAR between them is exactly how much worse Santo was in his last year, otherwise they'd be identical.
.221 BA
.293 OBP
.299 SLG
.591 OPS
-1.6 WAR
18 XBH/16 GDP
And Jeter at least contributed 9 steals. None for Santo.

He's almost 40 years old and he's been in the league almost 20 years. You really expected him to do anything worth a shite this year?

How many rings does Larkin have? Just curious
Posted on 9/16/14 at 10:36 pm to 1ranter1
Biggio's was pretty bad.
shite, Ripken had a negative WAR his final year. They're 40+ years old, what do you expect. Sucks that he's hurting his team making a push for the postseason though.

They actually have very similar careers honestly.
Jeter better offensively. Larkin way better defensively.

Yeah, Biggio was my favorite player growing up and that was tough to watch. I'm just thankful I got to see #3000 and his final game that year. My 2 favorite moments besides the Burke HR

Im laughing at Jeter being placed in the same category as mays and mantle. I thought that was clear.
He's fairly overrated. Has been for a long time. Im not saying he had a shitty career, because he clearly didn't.

Exactly. Both are hall of famers.
And lol at the dude asking about rings.
Eta: Larkin has 1. With a small market club.

He played huge roles in several of those postseasons. Played bigger in more meaningful games than Larkin ever did
Posted on 9/16/14 at 10:44 pm to 1ranter1
All 12 times I've watched NYY this year he's gone 0-4 and grounded meekly into a killer DP

Larkin did it while playing for a cheap arse team, with the smallest market in MLB.
Jeter did it for a money spending team with the largest market.
Of course Jeter would have more opportunities.
