July 14, 200521 yr The Denver Post reported the Rockies are prepared to trade pitcher Shawn Chacon to the Yankees for a minor-league prospect. Chacon, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury recently, has moved between the bullpen and rotation the last few years, pitching this year as a starter. He has posted a 1-5 record this season with a 4.30 ERA in 10 starts.
July 14, 200521 yr Author Chacon will not fare well in the AL. He can barely cut in the NL 854883[/snapback] Im sure pitching for the Rockies hasn't helped him....
July 14, 200521 yr He was barely throwing in the mid-80s in his start against the Marlins a few months back. Combine that with a lackluster a lackluster Yankees defense and that could be a disaster.

July 14, 200521 yr Author Jeter is the worst defensive SS in the league. 854983[/snapback] Didnt he win a GG last year?
July 14, 200521 yr He certainly doesn't have the range that you would expect from a GG shortstop, but he doesn't suck defensively.
July 14, 200521 yr Jeter is the worst defensive SS in the league. 854983[/snapback] Enough of the blind hate. Getting back to Chacon, he should have stayed a closer.
July 14, 200521 yr He's better than Tim Redding or Darrel May... Good trade as long as it's Kevin Thompson they are sending back to Colorado.
July 15, 200521 yr Jeter is the worst defensive SS in the league. 854983[/snapback] Didnt he win a GG last year? 854987[/snapback] Not one to criticize gold gloves because they might be the best awards as far as picking players goes, but did he really have any competition in the AL? Vizquel wasn't being Vizquel, Tejada has never been recognized for his glove work for the most part, Nomar was half the year hurt and the other half in Chicago, and the best SS in the AL was playing 3B. I think he won it because of the dive into the stands play.

The guy is solid as hell and makes very few errors and really orchestrates the defense out there. But when I see a blind hate, moronic post like 'Jeter is the worst defensive SS in the league' you have to jump on it.
