Fenway -

Keep in mind I'm a life long Mets fan. So with my completely unbiased opinion putting Ortiz & Jeter in the same category is almost night & day. Love both. But Jeter 1,100 more hits. He also plays SS. And until this year played every single day. Ortiz plays 5 minutes of most games.

Jeter will be in the conversation with Mantle, Ruth & Gehrig for ever. Jeter already owns 7 Yankee all time offensive records. Ortiz has zero.

That is the reason the Yankees are "taking care" of Jeter.
