On Baseball Reference Trammell ranks ahead of Jeter on JAWS, just barely. All a question of which metric you want to trot out.

Jeter's off-stat sheet attributes are probably as high as anyone who has ever played the game though. New York. Yankees. Playing for many great teams in many post-seasons (and yes he is part of the reason they were great but put him on the Orioles and they still aren't winners.) Even if somewhat wooden, a fine, role-model type individual amid the human disasters that were many stars of the era. Intangible leadership qualities (the Captain). Memorable plays in the field perhaps overshadowing his average fielding abilities (flip play, going into stands). The perception, at least, that he played better on the big stage and in clutch moments.
