I think you’re overstating it as per the Yankees.They are world beaters for the crap teams they play for, and then they end up pooping the bed when they come to Notre Dame.
So, just for the record as to guys who were big-time stars in MLB, Cuba or Japan who DIDN’T POOP THE BED after coming to the Yankees via free agency:
Catfish Hunter*
Reggie Jackson*
Goose Gossage*
Dave Winfield#
Tommy John#
Wade Boggs*
Jimmy Key*
David Wells*
Orlando “El Duque” Hernandez (Cuba)*
Mike Mussina#
Hideki Matsui (Japan)*
C.C. Sabathia*
Mark Texeira*
Masahiro Tanaka (Japan)
Gerritt Cole
Juan Soto
NOT A BAD HAUL. ANY QUESTION, CHECK OUT THEIR STATS IN PINSTRIPES.
And though he wasn’t a SUPERSTAR per se, let’s also thrown in Johnny Damon, whose 4 year Yankees stats were impressive as a SUPPORTING CAST MEMBER on some super Yankee teams.
