You guys Giancarlo Stanton is going to get 19 games a year against Baltimore’s pitching.

Baseball teaming up with Jeter to give him a baseball team - and Jeter turning around and trading the MVP to his old team while screwing South Florida — feels like Wall Street fraud

Derek Jeter bought an entire team just to trade Giancarlo Stanton to the Yankees #RE2PECT

— Ryan Gorman (@GormoExJourno) December 9, 2017

A quick recap: Jeter bought the Marlins using mostly other people’s money, completely gutted them, pushed out a bunch of longtime employees, and traded their once-in-a-Generation player to the Yankees.

Derek Jeter traded Giancarlo Stanton to the #Yankees for 1 vet & a few unknown prospects? Judge & Stanton in the same line-up. Wow. Jeter still low-key working for the Yankees? 😳

— Britt McHenry (@BrittMcHenry) December 9, 2017

Jeter: Take all $295M
Friedman: Nah
Jeter: Yes or he’ll go to a rival
Friedman: Lol sure
Jeter:
Jeter: Okay…$270M?

*Stanton rejects trades*

Jeter: Ok I’ll take Kazmir
Friedman: Go on
Jeter: Andrew don’t do this…
Friedman: Say it
Jeter: …I’m the worst defensive SS of all time

Amended Derek Jeter #Yankees resume:

2001, Mr. November
2017, Mr. December

— Rich Eisen (@richeisen) December 9, 2017

The greatest trick Derek Jeter ever pulled was convincing the Marlins he wasn't working for the Yankees
