but bernie has as good if not better numbers than jeter. bernie hit 20-30 homers, batted .300 or better, and hit 90+ RBIs for 8 straight seasons. jeter has only hit more than 84 rbis once and doesnt have nearly as much power as bernie, his best season was for 24 dinger.
my point isnt that Jeter isnt a HOF but if he is, Bernie has to be. numbers-wise, Bernie is offensively better than Derek. you'd have to really put a lot of stock into the "intangibles" and how Jeter is view as this darling of baseball to put him so far above Bernie.
