Unity.
Team work.
There is no "I" in Four.
And then, in the clubhouse, they feud like Reggie and Thurman.
Last night, CC (Thing) battered the Jays. Brett (Invisible Girl) took third on Cervelli's (also Invisible Girl) force-field controlled hit and run. Hideki (Human Torch) homered. Mariano (Mr. Fantastic) saved the 9th.
Sometimes, we're the World's Greatest Comic, and sometimes we're Archie and Jughead.
As Archie and Jughead, we lose.
Also, we lose as the Avengers, because everybody tries to be Thor. (Wait a minute. INSPIRATION: SHOULD JETER'S NICKNAME BE "CAPTAIN AMERICA?" Dammit, everybody: That's the el duque quote of the day!) Not sure about the X-Men here. Class? Help?

I think you're on to something here. Jason Giambi would be The Beast. Edwar Ramirez... Cyclops (only when he's wearing his specs) Steinbenner would be Professor X.
sPeL CheK!
That's our signature stile.
My NYY Avengers:
Jeter = Cap
A-Rod = Hawkeye
Cano = Quicksilver
Melky = Scarlet Witch (I couldn't resist.)
Damon = Thor, for the moment
Swisher = Hulk
Teixeira = The Wasp
Mo = The Vision
Sabathia = Hercules
Joba: Rick Jones
Pettitte: Giant Man
A.J. = Namor

That is my quick conclusion using the current roster. I bet there's a perfect matchup using all generations of the Yanks.
Actually, the Avengers might be apropos, since
--they're always rotating members on and off the squad.
--they spend a helluva lot of government money, especially when their mansion gets destroyed
--they tend to fight a lot of villains from the future (cf., the 2008 Rays, who will be pesky for years to come)
--the contributions of one of their members (Hank Pym) relies almost exclusively on manipulating biochemistry, yet he manages to screw things up the worst.
Riddering,
I don't see how you can not make Brett Gardner Quicksilver.
Suzyn should be Madam Medusa.
After tonight, there is no doubt that Gardner is Quicksilver.
I made the rookie mistake of casting for team dynamic rather than skills. *kicks dirt, curses*
If Suzyn is Medusa, I think the next logical step is that Sterling's voice has the power to destroy our planet. He must remain mute for the good of humanity!
