Revisiting the short-lived Shea Hillenbrand/Alfonso Soriano debate

One of the beautiful things about a rivalry as long-standing as the one between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees is there is always something to compare between the two teams. Often that is which team is better in a given year, but such a rivalry also gives rise to a number of debates about individual players. Ted Williams or Joe DiMaggio? Nomar Garciaparra or Derek Jeter? Dustin Pedroia or Robinson Cano? Mookie Betts or Aaron Judge? These are some of the most interesting to explore, even if each side of the debate will dig in their heels and blindly support their own guy.
