Derek Hit?

Nice New Yorker cover coming this week.  Always liked Jeter, though hate the Yanks, but if he's so "classy" and "team-first" why is he helping to kill their playoff hopes by refusing to sit down for more games and suggest he get moved to 8th or 9th in the order?  His OPS is almost the worst for any major league starting SS and his range stats are not only the worst but by a big margin.  Terrible way to go out....
