Jeter's Status: Unsigned

Derek Jeter never wanted to enter the free-agent process, but now that he is there, the shortstop's negotiations with the New York Yankees might as well go on a little bit longer. As of now, the infamous shortstop remains unsigned with any team, but the Yanks aren't looking to drop him anytime soon. Re-signing Jeter remains a priority for the Yankees, who have offered a three-year, $45 million contract that was not immediately accepted.

According to multiple reports, Jeter is looking for something more along the lines of a four- or five-year deal worth about $23 million per season. Jeter just completed a 10-year, $189 million deal, and despite the sizable gap between the two sides, most industry insiders expect that Jeter and the Yankees will eventually work out an agreement.
