Who is going to play SS for the Yankees today?
Wilson Betimit
Morgan Ensberg
ARod
Minor leaguer
Jeter is out and I certainly don't think Betimit can get it done at SS anymore. Ensberg has played short but he isn't any better than Betimit... Do they bring up a minor leaguer or move ARod over there? Jeter is not going on the DL so it may be hard to make a roster move.
Re: Who is going to play SS for the Yankees today?
Lineups already announced. As expected, it's Betemit.

Wilson Betimit will I assume. Morgan Ensberg can in for him yesterday but played first and Betimit went to SS.

I guess they don't want to upset princess Jeter.

Jeter sucks at shortstop, anyway.

What happened to Jeter? Im a yankees fan but have not started following them as much because of march maddness, but now that basketball is over and there is no football, its all baseball

Tweaked his groin yesterday, I believe.

Is the game going on? Im about 10 miles from the stadium right now and its been raining most of the day. It has let up of late.
I was hoping it'd be rained out, I have tickets for tomorrow night and would love to see opening day at a nice discount.

Some guy did a pretty advanced statistical thing and found that Jeter was the second worst defensive player in baseball behind only ManRam.

Not nearly as dubious is John Dewan’s book, “The Fielding Bible”, in which Dewan culls data from every play and
rates players on a plus-minus scale – plus for making a play that at least one of his peers had missed, and minus for the opposite. It is the new standard for fielding statistics, and in the past three years, Jeter is minus-90, the second-worst number in all of baseball, better only than
Manny Ramirez’s minus-109.
