Finally done with these Yankees. :P
Williams played twenty big league seasons, debuting at the age of 17. He amassed 2332 hits with a .276/.316/.395 overall line. He never stole bases and rarely walked - I can't believe he lasted that long as a regular. His best season was 1989 when he hit .286/.334/.377 and put up a 28.8 VORP. He won five Gold Gloves and was once an All Star.
O'Neill was a good regular for the Baltimore Orioles from his 1984 rookie year through the 1987 season. After the '87 season he dropped a little in ratings/potentials (from 7/6/6 to 6/6/5) and was never a starter again. From '88 until his retirement after '98 he played for the Orioles, Astros, Dodgers, Athletics, Cubs, Pirates and Red Sox. He wound up with 1106 career hits.
