The Captain has spoken.
Derek Jeter said on Friday that free agent shortstop Carlos Correa’s comments didn’t “even warrant a response.”
“I don’t even know how my name came up. My spanish is not that good. I still haven’t seen it,” said the Marlins’ CEO and part owner, who won five Gold Gloves as a career Yankee. “I mean, I could go in a lot of different directions, but I won’t.”
Correa appeared in an episode of the podcast “Me Gustan Los Deportes junto a Baerga y sus Amigos” that was shared on Nov. 11.
A small snippet of his appearance was tweeted by Yankee beat writer Ricardo Gibbon of “Con Las Bases Full” in which Correa said “Derek Jeter deserved none (of the 5 Gold Gloves he won).”
He also called out Jeter’s career -162 defensive runs saved.
That, of course, went viral with fans and baseball pundits alike criticizing the free agent and some agreeing with him.
The full video of the episode has since been switched to Private on Youtube.
