Did I really hear that correctly?


What are his career accomplishments for a plaque there? To me that is where only the HOF'ers from NYY are honored.

That's weak sauce. And didn't he only play there like 5 or 6 years also?

I just learned that his name is Constantino. Pretty badass.

He was a more accomplished Yankee than Reggie Jackson, who is in it.

Tino hit in the middle of the lineup on a team that won 4 rings in 6 years. Pretty dang good.

To be fair, he had way more hits than Whitey Ford did.

Yes and Paul O'Neil will get one as well... Tino played 7 years for the Yankees and while he was a big part of several championship teams he doesn't deserve a plaque....


Save those for Jeter, Mo, Posada, and Andy (Bernie has one)

Roger Maris has a plaque and he's not a HOFer
