Willie McGee's trade from the Yankees to the Cardinals in 1981 is considered one of the team's most regrettable decisions, reflecting the organization's poor trade history.
McGee’s incredible career, despite a slow start in the Yankees organization, included remarkable statistics and significant contributions to his teams, highlighting the Yankees' mishandling of his talent.
Even when contextualizing some of the Yankees' poor trades during the era, the McGee trade stands out as one of the worst, with no justifiable rationale.
Born into a religious household, Willie McGee had to navigate personal struggles and family expectations before ultimately flourishing in his baseball career.
