I'll go with Winfield. (Could also add--think I have this right--trying to force Mattingly to trim his sideburns...while he was under suspension, I think.)

Weirdly enough--someone from New York can correct me on this--I think, in the end, most Yankee fans viewed him positively. He spent money in an effort to win. Recklessly, not very intelligently through the late '80s, but he never held back.

I mean, giving money illegally to Richard Nixon has to be pretty high up there.

Apparently, he assisted the FBI in a sting operation (or two) prior to his pardon?
