Prior to 2016 he was it Great and Durable.
And now with this back issue that can effect the rest of his career and needs to be watched and managed we all fear how it might impact his high standards of greatness moving forward

as many people say 'Availability' is one of the best abilities..
also if you are a super player an elite player..today with THREE wild card teams for your team to not make the playoffs versus players before 1969 who had very limited postseasons i believe you should punish more elite players with lack of playoff success as there are so many more opportunites to make the playoffs
The fact a poster shows he thinks jeter is better than Arod and would rather have jeter on their team shows that winning playoff games matter.......
are you a better player if everyone wants you on your team to win games given a choice, or are you better if your stats are better?
