Yankees Catching Legends: From Dickey to Posada
The New York Yankees have had a number of legendary players in their 100+ years, some of whom rose to the highest level of the game and eventual induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY. One of the greatest satisfactions for an organization is seeing their homegrown players, whether taken in the amateur draft or signed as free agents out of places like Venezuela and the Dominican Republic, achieve such success. Sometimes that includes handing the position off from one player with a great career to another. For the Yankees, it meant players like Bill Dickey and Jorge Posada.
