A-rod jhasn't lived up to the hype? MVP trophies are given out to 1 person in each league, each year. A-rod wil easily pass Hank Aaron unless he suffers a catastrophic injury. He was also a GG SS and is still probably the best SS the Yankees have. A-rod's numbers DWARF Jeters and NOBODY will say Derek Jeter was a better player than A-rod when all is said and done.
When A-rod hangs em up, he will be recognized as one of, if not THE best players of all time.
Just because A-rod didn't play on Jeter's Title teams doesn't mean Jeter is a superior player. A-rod is better in almost every facet of the game. And in some categories it is not even close. I would be willing to wager that every Championship Team Jeter played on would have STILL been a Championship team had A-rod and not Jeter been the starting SS.
