- No, I actually AM a Rose fan; I was just trying to be factual. I know Rose was always a winner and brought a lot of intangibles to every game he played, but he was only a .256 hitter his last 4 years with an amazingly low slugging pct. of .305. If not for his reputation and the hype surrounding his quest, I don't think any team would have started him, especially not at first base (of course, being his own manager his last couple of years didn't hurt).My favorite Rose memory was seeing him at a Philly show in the 1980s, where he was signing for $10 (or something like that), but on his breaks he was hawking his auto to people outside the signing room for $2-$3 less. Always Charlie Hustle! I got 2 autos at the full price, btw. |

I don't think Jeter will get 200 hits this year, despite his torrid start, and I don't think he will be playing at this level too much longer. I say 3500 hits is a good bet, and 3600 is not out of the question. Beyond that is unclear. Does he want to play past 40 with reduced skills? Can he remain injury free between ages 38-40? Probably not.
