Please consider taking the following poll:
Who was your favorite Yankees SS in the Steinbrenner Era not named "Derek Jeter"?
Thanks in advance. And, please feel free to add comments on your opinion in the comments section below.
Where’s Almonte???
one might wonder why i picked mike gallego…here’s why:
1) i’ve only known him, tony fernandez, randy velarde and jeter at SS in my lifetime
2) he was there when i first started watching, and when i was young i was a big fan of the big mike little mike thing (with stanley) dunno why, i was young lol
Good survey, do catcher’s next!
I always loved me some Randy Velarde.
I remember being very upset when I heard Velarde tested positive for PEDs back in the day. I believe he was an Athletic at the time.
I think Munson would win the catchers by a landslide…Yogi being close second

This happened, I’m sure. I’ve just never much cared about that stuff. Taking PEDs may be cheating, but cheating has a long and illustrious history in MLB.
So, in short, I still love me some Randy Velarde.
On another note, I feel kind of bad for poor Spike Owen, down there with nary a single vote. I always had a soft spot for him, too, though I can’t really say why. It might just be on account of his name. He just sounds like a baseball player, right?
How can Munson win by a landslide AND there still be a close second. It doesn’t make sense.
