He was damn near perfect in 2008, absolutely terrible in 2009, and then fairly good in 2010 and 2011 before seeing his career finally come apart. I get the feeling that Lidge didn't have the mental makeup most great closers had.
May 27, 201411 yr I find it hard to believe they'll have Jeter not play the majority of the game if he starts

June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (bmags @ May 27, 2014 -> 01:43 PM) You know what, boo hoo, so what that 20-year HOF veteran Derek Jeter is going to play 2 innings in his final all star game. Is it annoying the elevated status he has maintained from playing in the country's largest media environment? yes, it was. So were his gold gloves, but this one? Can't get mad. Than don't have the AS game mean something. I'm fine with it being an exhibition and letting Jeter have his stupid moment but not in a game that actually counts for something. Have it be an exhibition or have the best players out there, Bud wants it both ways and that's just dumb.
