Let's play a game... You start naming players who got better when they put on the Yankee uniform and I'll name you just as many who didn't.


Here, I'll start.


Mark Teixeira


You go.


I said the highly paid mercenaries are the exception.

Paul oneill
Mariano Duncan
Chad Curtis
Charlie Hayes
Raul ibanez
Andrew jones
Russ Martin
Travis Hafner
Vernon wells
Eric Chavez

Remember the rule. Other teams deem them useless and washed up, come to NY and exceed all expectations

Well, Olberman is a doosh, so it was fitting Knobs went after the ol' lady.

Using your "rule" Oniel can be stricken...he was traded...not "dumped"

hayes? LOL..he was junk in NY

Chad Curtis was the same scrub in NY that he was in detroit

Andruw Jones? He was fucking terrible, and his OPS dropped only about 150 points from 2011...

Russell martin? Terrible..and far worse than he was as a dodger early in his career.

hafner and wells have less than 40 games total between them....getting a bit ahead of ourselveS?


That leaves Duncan, Jones and Chavez...


What...an....impressive....list.....

Here are 3 from Boston over the past couple of years that have "exceeded expectations" durring their time in Boston...

Cody Ross
Bill Hall

You are definitely right on some of these. Paul O'Neill wasn't one of them, though. That was just a good trade for the Yankees. Nobody deemed him useless/washed up.

P.S. This theory hasn't worked for any of the 2004 Red Sox WS winners who played in NY subsequently.
