My favorite player growing up was actually Jeter.

Christian Yelich

I'm still a huge Yankees fan. Growing up, Jeter was my guy, but Bernie Williams was my favorite player.

Action Bronson

Derek Jeter used to come to me and try to tell you what Joe Torre is all about, he's a good man, he's this, he's that, but like I tell Derek Jeter, that's you. It's one thing that they treat you a certain way; you don't feel what other people feel.

Gary Sheffield

How can I ever dog Derek Jeter? It's impossible. There is nothing to knock. He's a great defensive player. He's a great offensive player.

Alex Rodriguez

I think most of the people like the kind of player like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez. They're pretty tall, and they can do everything.

Jose Altuve

Derek (Jeter) told me the ghosts would show up eventually!

Aaron Boone

I never pay attention to errors in the Minor Leagues. Derek Jeter made 43 errors in the South Atlantic League, and I didn't care. With his hands and his range, I don't worry about that with Zimmerman. He is a good defensive player.

Jim Bowden

I always enjoy watching Derek Jeter play because he is a model of consistency both in the field and at the plate. I finished my career with 3,110 hits, and I have only admiration and respect for Derek. I hope he pauses to admire the view and keeps going. Just one more achievement in an incredible career.

Dave Winfield

I'm not Derek Jeter, there will be no farewell tour.

Jim Boeheim

My favorite growing up was Tino Martinez, so I think that would be cool to strike out your favorite player as a kid.

Patrick Corbin

I want to be to the White Sox what Derek Jeter is to the Yankees.

Gordon Beckham

Derek Jeter seems like a cool dude.

Jamal Crawford

Growing up watching the league, Allen Iverson was my favorite player. But once I got here, Steve Nash instantly became my favorite.

Shaun Livingston

Well, anytime you're compared to Derek Jeter, it's the ultimate compliment.

Buster Posey

I always say Manny [Ramirez] is a strange guy. Outwardly, he's happy-go-lucky. On the inside, he's got a lot of conspiracy theories going on. I would say Manny might be one of these guys when he's 50 years old, he might be in his house with all the blinds shut kind of looking out like the CIA's out there. You don't know, man. I mean, you don't know what's going on in the interior with him. So you don't worry about it.
