Derek Jeter on recovering from ankle surgery:

“I don’t want to make it seem more dramatic than it is, but you’ve got to learn to walk again, so in that sense physically it was a challenge and then mentally it’s a challenge when you sit on the couch and you can’t get anywhere. I had a little scooter I could (use) to move around, but it was tough. It was not fun.”

Derek leading several other Yankees in spring training drills.
