This list is really difficult to judge. For example, Nettles 21, Scooter 20, Randolph 19. You could flip flop them anyway you want, throw a Paul O'Neill or Bobby Richardson in the group and who could argue.
So subjective, I know that i sure couldn't be able to number them.

Richardson, my boyhood hero, is interesting. While his BA was consistently around .250-.260, his OBP was surprisingly very low as was his SLG, which gets back to why OPS can be a very misleading stat when evaluating a player's offensive contributions. |

Pinstripe Alley Top 100 Yankees: #18 Jorge Posada
The Yankees have a rich legacy of All-Star catchers, and the switch-hitting slugger Posada more than made his mark.
Urine Good Hands comes in at #18
He should have been more than a one and done for HOF voting.

Agreed . He was a good hitter, but his glove work was questionable at times, Thank God, he didn't drop Jeter's flip in the playoffs against the Oakland A's. I often wonder what Yankees HOF Catcher and long-time MLB Coach what Bill Dickey would have though about Posada's skills. Clipper |

Pinstripe Alley Top 100 Yankees: #19 Willie RandolphOne of the Yankees’ most low-key greats, Randolph had a career to make New York proud.
Finally got the time to read through this one. I know there's already a lot of Yankees in the HOF, but just like Nettles, Willie deserves serious consideration. The combination of great defense and on base skills are hard to find, especially at Willie's elite level. |

Posada was a very good, team player. No knock on him, but I never thought watching him that he was a Hall of Fame player. |

Munson. He’ll be the first of many ranked above Judge that I’ll get a twinge of nostalgia for but be thinking… “ahead of Judge”? Every time… 🤓 |
