Again, he's far from a household name even though many may remember him from that key time in MLB history on a Yankees team that was coming to the end of a period of domination. But he really was only a footnote to that team, and therefore more than deserving of his spot IMHO, especially given he wasn't rated off the charts or anything - mid 60s OVR / POT in this league.

He went from good to average to bad real fast. As I posted earlier, back in the day looking at that I wondered what happened to him. At the time I didn't know about the decline of Zoilo Versailles.
