Interesting answers in the thread so far. I don't really have a dog in the fight. But I think you guys all have rose-colored glasses in the Jeter situation. He made over $22mil this year. Do you really think he'll magically ask for $10 or $15 million on a team that makes money hand over fist? IMO, there is zero chance it will be less than $20mil and might even be above last year's salary. The real fight will be over years; Jeets will want 4 or 5, team will want 2 or 3.

Surprised there is no interest in Crawford.
