The name on the back of the jersey means nothing to me. I'd trade Jeter for your grandmother if I thought your grandmother had a decent curveball. Winning will get back any fans who get upset.
The age factor is the only thing that made me consider trading him. He is the only member of the inaugural season team left. The comparison of Jeter to grandma is a bit extreme, but hilarious.

They're not really cheap. My league is based on a financial model that is 10% of modern MLB finances. My entire team budget is $14 million.
