Player Profile - Derek Jeter

Jeter posted a phenomenal season for the Yankees in 2006, perhaps his best ever. He set new career marks in doubles (39), stolen bases (34) and batting average (.344) while posting his highest RBI total since 1999 (97). Jeter started the season with a bang, hitting at a head-spinning .398 clip in April and hit .368 or higher in three complete months! The Yankees have reloaded and will undoubtedly rank among the league's highest-scoring lineups. Jeter brings his five-category abilities to put it all in motion. He has played in 148 or more games in 10 of his 11 Major League seasons, delivering 100 or more runs 10 times and double-digit home runs and stolen bases in 11 consecutive seasons with a career .317 batting average.
