How many WS Titles and Hall of Famers do they have compared with the Yankees? Asking for a friend.

I’m sure the discussion is about how Tampa Bay has done well the past few years with a much smaller payroll than big market teams such as the Yankees. If you want to talk about all of baseball history, I’m sure the Yankees have won more World Series than any other team.

Grew up in NJ. Been a NYY fan my entire life. Have a pic of me with Mantle and Martin. My signed Thurman Munson baseball is one of my favorite possessions.

That said, most crap organizations can spend $202,000,000 and create a decent team. Not many can do the same with just $67,000,000. There can be no argument that the Rays are a superior managed organization. Which, of course, was my point.

I miss the days when your team had the same players on it year after year and you created a bond that lasted a lifetime. That was when baseball deserved to be the national pastime. Ironically, it was Steinbrenner who ruined the game with free agency. His first big hire was Catfish Hunter. I happened to see him pitch his first game at the old stadium.
