Is that even a possibility? It would almost guarentee Jeter moving out of SS for good, which would help his health over the long term duration of his contract. Playing shortstop in your mid to late 30s everyday is not a plus in the health department.

Very unlikely. The Yankees are the last team the Mets would want to send their superstar SS to. And on the Yankees side, they don't even have the "nerve" yet to take Jeter and his .324 OBP out of the leadoff spot. Not likely they take him off SS all together. And theres nowhere for him to play if they do. Right now his bat is weak for a SS. Only other place for him would be DH and he would be the worst DH of all time.
