  • Bob_Cohen said: Billy, Nettles truly was outstanding. Only his relatively low career batting average is keeping him out of the Hall of Fame. By the way, you would probably enjoy reading about him and many other Yankee greats in my new book, "The 50 Greatest Players in New York Yankees History." Please feel free to check it out on Amazon.com Bob Cohen 11:04AM 02/23/12
  • Billy Pepitone said: My favorite player of all time. Vastly underrated, one of the greatest fielding third basemen of all time who also hit 390 career home runs. 10:58AM 02/23/12
