And that, is the largest "sample" we've seen. Good against the Blue Jays in May is one thing. Good against the Phillies is another. .193 in October.

What about all of the great hits he had against Tampa, Kansas City and Toronto? Don't those count for something? You can’t say that Cano underperformed in the post season just because he did.

Anyone harping on his batting average with RISP is a Red Sox fan, or a complete moron. Over the course of his entire career, Jeter has been one of the most clutch players in the history of the game.

Hitting in between guys like Posada and Nick Swisher. He had that horrible batting line but still had 85 RBI total. In 11 less games batting 5th (50 games), he had 1 less RBI than when he batted 7th (61 games) Pretty awesome.
