  1. An underrated key member of some great teams. One of the best Mike Stantons to play for the Yankees.

    1. One could argue that he's been the best Mike Stanton to play for the Yankees.

  2. I like to think that the *current* Yankee decided to go by the name Giancarlo out of deference to *this* Mike Stanton. I know it's not true, but it's an interesting coincidence.
