congrats on having the #1 pick in the NBA draft for 3 years before they sign in NY or LA.

Our GM is pretty savvy. If we don’t re-sign him (a good possibility since we will be sweet by then) I’m sure we will trade him for some haul.

I’m just happy that Piston wanna-be org the Cavs didn’t get a chance to burn another 1.

Would he have been a better player if he took a day off? Statistically, he was one of the best SS in baseball history. Top 5 or 6

I think in the latter half of his career he would have been well served to take some days off. Defensively, yes he was terrific. Offensively? Average.

At some point watching him was like watching Carson Wentz

Without getting too baseball nerdy, just look at his stats. 400+ home runs, 3100 hits, .276 avg. This as a shortstop. He was Hornsby, but he is in the next tier.

It’s a well known fact that the Detroit resident Cavs owner has modeled his Cavs org after the Pistons. There is a huge friendly rivalry between the two fan bases since both work for him.

I appreciate your adding the statistical side to the conversation, that's part of the fun of baseball IMO. Do you consider Jeter to be next tier?

Jeter hit for a higher avg, was a middling fielder and had less power. He had more hits and runs than Cal but did not have his power.

Cal carrer WAR. 95+

Jeter Career WAR 71+

Still Jeter is probably top 10-12 of shortstops
