Well I still dunno about that but i do know that neither is as valuable as Jeter or Dye.
Its incredible how little credit anyone gives playing the field anymore. Noone notices until someone boots a ground ball that costs someone a game.
Jeter has been lights out in the field this year and his fielding percentage doesnt even begin to tell the story. Hes made some incredible plays that would have been ruled hits had he not gotten them and turned into one or even two outs.
He carried the Yankees on his back when the whole team was wounded and without Damon, Cano, Matsui and Sheff and before they had traded for ABreu. During that stretch Arod was stinking the joint up as well and Jeter was the guy who held it together. WIthout him, the Yanks are holding a slim lead over Boston right now. Hes been incredibly valuable and his numbers are awesome.
