Jeter also said in the article that he hopes Andy Pettitte comes back, and that this year has been "unbelievable."Jeter danced around questions about the Yankees' potential offseason acquisitions Tuesday night, although he did admit that GM Brian Cashman picks his brain from time to time.
"It doesn't mean they always listen to me, but they'll ask questions," Jeter said. "Cash has done a great job."
Jeter has been one of Cashman's point men with prospective free agents, directing players to reach out to the Captain to answer any questions they may have about playing in New York, although Jeter hasn't felt the need to recruit players to put on pinstripes.
"I've never felt the need to sell New York," Jeter said. "I think New York speaks for itself in terms of coming here to play. If someone has any questions, they can feel free to call me."
Regarding the rumors that Roy Halladay could be traded to New York The Captain said, "It goes without saying that if you add a guy like that to any team, he's going to make them instantly better. He's going to make a great team even greater and a good team even better. You can't say enough things about him. I've always talked glowingly on how fun it is to face him. He's outstanding."
