Opening Day

Ahhh... opening day...

My top 5 All-time favorite Yankees list (was chatting with my sister about this)

1. Nettles
2. Mattingly
3. Jeter
4. Munson
5. Guidry

If my dad were still alive - he most certainly go with:

1. Mantle
2. Ford
3. Richardson 4
4. Clete Boyer (but he'd admit that Nettles had just as good a glove, and a better stick)
5. Yogi
6. Jeter

Finally, while nothing would make me happier than a 0-162 Mets season, here's my top 5 Mets list, just 'cause we were also talking about the Mets...

1. Doc Gooden (also a Yankee)
2. Lee Mazilli (I do believe he was a Yankee)
3. Strawberry (also a Yankee)
4. D. Wright (will one day certainly be a Yankee)
5. Keith Hernandez (just remember not to ask him to help you move - my sister pointed this out for me)
