The Yankees never should have signed him in the first place -- he was nothing but an opportunist looking to pad his Hall of Fame credentials by adding a World Series ring to his trophy case.

The nerve of him. Wanting to win the World Series. The bastard.

If he wanted to win a World Series ring, he should have thought long and hard before chickening out in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series.

What he basically did was wait until the end of his career, then go out "shopping" for a team that was already a strong contender.
