I used to be a huge baseball fan years ago but I'm really not any more. I know both of those guys are great players but I really don't know enough about their numbers to give an opinion. From what I do know, I would have to think that's it's a pretty close call.

I don't really think comparing those two guys is like comparing Pletcher to Shirreffs. Pletcher's horses are making over $20 million a year. Shireffs' horses probably make closer to $3 million a year. I think there is a much bigger gap between Pletcher and the other trainers than there is between Jeter and A-Rod.
