Derek Jeter

[GonzoStyle]

Santana is more important to his team than morneau, as jays and I talked about.

Jeter carried a team that had pretty much no picthing, they had a 2nd year chink as their best pitcher. They lost matsui and sheff, abreu didnt get there till the last few weeks. On the field, in the dugout and in the lockeroom, that man is MVP all the way.

Ortiz still had Manny and even so they still crumbled. The yanks should have by all means crumbled and it coulda been blamed on no pitching and losing sheff and matsui but Jeter carried that team to the playoffs.

Frank Thomas is the only real viable candidate cause he willed that team the last month, but still that A's have a pitching staff which is more valuable.
