Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has vowed to return to the field in 2013, according to an ESPN.com report on Thursday.
"No doubt," Jeter said at a news conference at Yankee Stadium, where he addressed his latest setback from a fractured ankle. "When you have doubt, that is when you have trouble."
Last week, Jeter was diagnosed with a small crack in his surgically repaired left ankle.
"I've been told this bone will heal," Jeter said. "When it heals, I'll be ready to go. It is frustrating that I can't magically make it heal sooner than it is taking. But there is no doubt. I have no doubt."
