On Sunday, Derek Jeter will most likely play in the last game of his career against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. That is, of course, unless he wants to be the manager of the team. According to Bryan Hoch, the writer who covers the New York Yankees for MLB.com, Jeter has an interesting decision to make for tomorrow.

While Hoch says that Jeter didn't seem too interested, there wasn't a flat-out "no," so let's not rule out anything just yet. In the past, Jeets has said that he isn't all that intrigued by the prospect of becoming a manager, but this is potentially, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity here! Think it over, Captain.
