Bernie was better than O'Neil and Tino :shaq2:

They didn't want to jam all the inductions at once.

Bernie is probably getting his # Retired

O'Neill was my favorite, game 5 sendoff is my favorite Yankee moment ever. Getting your name chanted in Yankee Stadium, when your team is losing in the top 9 of a World Series game

:wow:

If I wasn't going out of the Country, I'd buy ticket to the Aug 9 Ceremony for O'Neill.

I'm confused about Tino getting a plaque

bernie should be recognized before o'neill, tino, torre AND posada IMO. he's been getting played by this franchise for too long.

They're getting plaques to get fans to show up to the Stadium. On the surface, Tino getting a plaque is a joke....but the almighty dollar rules. Suddenly a Saturday or Sunday game against the Twins or whomever looks a hell of a lot more appealing if Tino's there tipping his little cap.

Tino and Goose are getting Plaques during Old Timers Day

You Could say O'Neill and Torre are money grabs but those 2 were long over due and more than deserving.

I don't think an Yankee has worn 21, since Latroy Hawkins got all that heat for Honoring Clemente :lolbron:

Gotcha....that's not nearly as bad then.

Torre for sure deserves it. I love Oneill but he's borderline too...but he's definitely the most popular of the bunch listed here.

I think this was Tanaka's worse game, he got in trouble a few times and looked a bit frazzled.
