    The Next Retired Yankee Number?

    Who do you guys think will be the next number in monument park? I say Paul O'Neil. I was there for his final game at Yankee stadium. Man was that crazy!

    I say a large construction beam will crush New Yankee $tadium, and then the debris from New Yankee $tadium will crush Yankee $tadium.

    And that's the end of the Yankee$.

    Paul O'Neill's number shouldn't be retired. Retired numbers should be reserved for the GREATS of a team. Very good players that played for 7 or 8 years with a team don't fall into that category.

    It'll be either Jeter or Posada.

    It SHOULD be one of them or Rivera....but, given the despicable reaction the Yankee fans had to LaTroy Hawkin's wearing O'Neill's number, I wouldn't be surprised that O'Neill's is retired.

    O'Neill, Goose, When Jeter retires it will be a Jeter/Murcer combo like Dickey/Berra!

    Well I figured going on the whole HOF thing....

    O'Neill may not go in but I wouldn't be shocked.

    A-Rod, Mussina, Jeter,
    FYI: They cant retire Rivera's number as it is alredy retired and after he retires he'll be the final player to wear #42
    Lakers/Cardinals/Patriots/Penguins

    Yeah they can totally retire it since he was grandfathered in!

    A-Rod....would have to play a few more years with the Yanks......

    I really can't see anyone until Jeter/Posada/Rivera/Pettitte are done. MAYBE Bernie Williams, but that's a pretty big maybe.
