It’s officially winter and not only are we in the middle of an MLB owners’ lockout, but the owner of our favorite team is obviously a key actor in said proceedings and our collective frustrations. The good news is that as Yankee fans, we’ve had plenty of good things to talk about over the years that’ll help us pass the time until spring arrives (and hopefully baseball arrives along with it).
With that in mind, let’s take a look back and rank the decades in Yankees history, from worst to best. This will be fun because the Yankees have had several great decades, and even the ones that weren’t great were only substandard relatively speaking — most teams would be jealous of what the Yankees and their fans would consider a “bad” decade.
