New York Yankees 11x14 Derek Jeter Fine Art Lithograph Limited Edition 18/300 By Artist Jacob Burgess. The Yankees, who selected sixth, also rated Jeter highly.[18] Yankees scout Dick Groch, assigned to scout in the Midwest, watched Jeter participate in an all-star camp held at Western Michigan University.[19] Though Yankees officials were concerned that Jeter would attend college instead of signing a professional contract, Groch convinced them to select him, saying, "the only place Derek Jeter's going is to Cooperstown".[20] The second through fifth picks were Paul Shuey, B. J. Wallace, Jeffrey Hammonds, and Chad Mottola; those five would combine for two All-Star Game appearances (Nevin and Hammonds).[21] The Yankees drafted Jeter, who chose to turn pro, signing for $800,000.
