Mlb Expansion History
Why do people hate the Yankees and Yankees fans so much. I’m a Yankee fan, I’ve been since the early 70′s. 1

Prior to free agency, most of the greatest baseball players in history were Yankees, not all were Yankkes there was Ted Williams, Ty Cobb, etc., but no baseball team can compare with how many the Yankees have had: Ruth, Dimaggio, Rizzutto, Gehrig, Berra, Mantle the list goes on and on.
