Derek Jeter is 36 today. Can it be? Really?
He looks the same now as he did when he won the Rookie of the Year award in 1996.
Has Jeter slowed down a bit? Probably a tad but it's barely noticeable.
The guy is one of the all-time greats and it makes me laugh when people say he's overrated.
He's also one of the classiest players ever and I'm sure he'll add to his total of 5 World Series rings by the time he hangs it up. I think he'll get another one this season.
Jeter has 2,835 hits and barring injury will get to 3,000 next season. Pete Rose has 4,256 hits. Can Jeter catch Rose? I don't know but I wouldn't bet against it.
Let me clarify, Pete Rose Senior. Pete Rose Junior collected 2 hits in his Major League career.
Anyway, Happy Birthday to the Yankees captain.
