Best shortstop in AL not in, I won't watch... 5x Gold Glove winner, best defensive shortstop in AL

For being a Yankee fan, you sure hate Jeter quite a bit.

And I'd honestly rather have them skip this and get some time off. Same reason I'm glad Tex and CC aren't in it.

Jeter trying to help the Yankees by giving the AL a better chance to win

Jeter's going to get slammed whether he plays or not.

No I'm saying that I have no interest in watching Asdrubal Cabrera.

I am a team fan, not a player fan.... My favorite players have long since retired (Guidry/Mattingly)

Williams/Oneill were last players that I made sure to follow....

Good picks.

So every starter should be a Yankee? Sounds exciting.

Do me a favor and please quote me where I said that?

I said I have no interest in watching Asdrubal Cabrera.

Am I complaing about Rivera? Am I complaining about A-Rod? Didn't think so.

When you say you'd rather watch Jeter than Cabrera then it's safe to say that you just want to watch a Yankee, not the better player. Figured that logic would be applied to every position.
