The New York Yankees have a multitude of great players in their franchise history.
Current Yankees greats include Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Giancarlo Stanton and Gerrit Cole.
With all of the great names in their history, it would appear impossible to list the four greatest.
Judge recently revealed who would be the four players on his Mt. Rushmore of Yankees greats.
“Yogi Berra, 10-time World Series champ. Mickey Mantle, MVP is what he did every single year in center field. Babe Ruth, obviously. [Derek] Jeter, the Captain,” Judge said, via B/R Walk-Off.

The list of great Yankees players appears to be endless, but Judge was able to narrow it down to the four greatest in his opinion.
Judge came into the league in 2016 and has played all nine of his MLB seasons for them.
It would appear that he also has already cemented himself as one of the Yankees’ all-time greats, but he is still seeking a first World Series title.
Judge mentioned Berra’s 10 World Series titles, and one would think that Judge would like to get a few rings of his own before putting himself on that Mt. Rushmore list.
Although Judge has dominated in the regular season, the postseason has been a different story, as he holds a .203 average with 15 home runs and 31 RBIs in 53 playoff games.
Judge did not hit a home run in the American League Division Series win against the Kansas City Royals then managed two in the American League Championship Series victory, and he will now look for his first-ever World Series home run in Game 1 against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
