The Yankees have retired 21 numbers representing 22 different players. There have been many other Yankees who will live on forever yet don’t have their numbers retired. But given their history, some numbers have been worn by many, many players. So I wanted to look at who was the best to wear certain jersey numbers, limiting the scope to players since 2010.
I may end up doing more, but for this first one I will be starting with palindromic numbers (11, 22, 33, etc.) and I will not be including single-digit numbers since those are all retired (barring Adam Ottavino’s 0).
