12 players you totally forgot were Yankees
By Ryan Morik

Lance Berkman
Side tangent here: Lance Berkman should have absolutely gotten a better look during his Hall of Fame candidacy. Only 13 players in the history of baseball have a career .293-plus average, .406-plus on-base percentage, and .537-plus slugging percentage while playing in at least 1,800 games. Nine of them are Hall-of-Famers, two of them are Barry Bonds and Manny Ramirez, and one of them (Todd Helton) has nine more years on the ballot.
No, Berkman did not put those numbers up in New York. He actually was much worse than that in his 37 games as a Yankee in 2010.
Kerry Wood, Chan Ho Park, Lance Berkman, Randy Winn all in 2010. That’s a squad and a half in 2001.
Berkman’s tenure with the Yankees accounted for just one of his 366 home runs, and he drove in just nine runs. Naturally, the following season, he finished in seventh place in the National League MVP voting, slashing .301/.412/.547 with 31 home runs and 94 RBI. He also got a well-deserved ring that season with the Cardinals.
But his time with the Yankees was short-lived, and little to no positives came out of it.
