First stat I can think of is that I have never seen any Yankee pitcher toss a no hitter. When Cone did it in 1999 I was just 9 years old and did not have Cable to watch the game. I was really excited watching CC and that 4 run 8th inning we had just took to long for me. Hopefully this will be the year I see a Yankee throw a no hitter.
- 534 Players have hit a HR for the Yankees. The last guy to join this list was Curtis Granderson. Who will be the next guy? 2 of the Yankees new players Nick Johnson and Marcus Thames have already hit at least 1 HR for the Yankees during there first time around. The safe Bet for number 235 would have to be Randy Winn.
- Derek Jeter is just 20 SB from tying Henderson for the Yankees record. So its a safe bet that Jeter will break the Yankees stolen base record this season if he stays healthy. Brett Gardner is 67th on the list with 42 career steals. I think he will finish the Season in the Yankees top 40.
- I wouldve never guessed but Lou Gehrig hold the Yankee Record for triples with 163.
- Derek jeter 214 double plays are just 9 behind Bernie Williams 223 for most hit into by a Yankee. I hope he never breaks that record.
- 661 players have pitched for the Yankees. The best in my Opinion May be Mariano Rivera. While the worse is probably upstate native Tim Redding who was roughed up for 6 runs in just 1 inning of work. Although Anthony Claggets 11 runs in 2.2 is also up there.
