    What a gem and a first ballot hall of famer. On behalf of Rick and all the other Arod fans I would like to congratulate Alex on a fantastic accomplishment.

    It really is painful to hear his name along side folk like Gehrig, much less in passing them in accomplishments...

    There's never been a more boring grand slam hit.

    Now if we can just get guys like Michael Kay to STFU when it comes to this clown chasing & passing greats like Willie Mays & Lou Gehrig.

    My all time favorite Yankee 3rd Baseman since I became a fan is still Graig Nettles.

    Yeah, mine was Clete Boyer until Nettles came along. I'll never forget the incredible defense in the 77 world series against the Dodgers.

    Nettles played with the Yankees just at the very beginning of my understanding baseball... I have to say I liked Brosius the best...
