  • You are being facetious, right? The Yankees retired the Babe's number a long time ago.

    tHIS IS ACTUALLY A HUGE QUESTION FOR CARD COLLECTORS. How many people invested in jersey card's auto card's and all #d card's, that were #d 3/?? his unifrom # now they wont hold value anymore. plus people sitting on lets say he were's #6 have the cards 6/?? they are about to hit payday. i have to flip through all my arod cards now.

    what about 1

    I mean he is the highest paid
    player in the game! so why not
    make him #1

    also, mantle was originally 6 and later changed to 7....

    I believe when they retire a number it means that it won't be used agian.
    Not sure, just a wild guess.
  • you are right.
    I found this to help us all Eliminate

    Gee.......I dunno, maybe not. Joe Torre wears #6.
    Not really sure, just another guess.

  • kuhlmannkuhlmann Posts: 3,326 ✭✭
    Torre is # 6? than ill guess 33!

    How about 0 in keeping with how much Mets fans are going to care?

    Torre won't be there nearly as long
    as A-rod will be.
    and I bet that if Arod WANTED 6
    George would rip it right
    off of Joe's jersey himself!!!

    david wells was 33! his jersey might be worth more now if arod takes that #!
  • I own a Steiner 1998 Yankee Autographed bat limited to 125. It's #33. I wonder if it will go up in value if AROD takes #33? NOT
  • He should wear a dollar sign - unless George Steinbrenner already has that one.

    Or maybe like Dennis Rodman he could wear some number that adds up to 3, though that limits him to 21, I guess. Is Giambi 12?

    When I first heard of this story I couldn't believe it. Back when he was a free agent, I joked with a Yankee fan/dealer at a show by telling him that not only the Yankees had signed A-Rod and moved him to third, but they also traded Orlando Hernandez to Boston for Nomar to play second. The guy believed me up to the second part. Now that basically half of that has come true, and Nomar's a free agent soon, it could happen. The $100 Million infield.

  • I doubt if he is really too concerned what number he gets, just as long as his jersey says Yankees on the front instead of the Rangers.

    actually.....he'd have to be in AAA ball for his jersey to say Yankees on the Front.

  • IronmanfanIronmanfan Posts: 5,478 ✭✭✭✭
    AAA ball says "Columbus" or "Clippers," but not New York!

    OK, you got me image

    ...but i clearly remember one of the minor league teams that has "Yankees" on the jerseys.
    maybe it was the Albany or Oneonta sqaud......anyways..I think this thread is out of gas.

    single A "Tampa" Yankees of the Florida State League maybe?

  • he will wear #33 since David Wells is gone

    #13 is being used by Tony Clark
  • murcerfanmurcerfan Posts: 2,329 ✭✭
    whew!
    it's worse than I thought
    image

    BTW, It's #13 accordingy to the press release (Tony who??) image

    seriously, maybe Clark took 12 now that Soriano won't need it.

  • check out the Yankees official roster at newyorkyankees.com

    13 Tony Clark
    13 Alex Rodriguez


    lists them both as #13
