Berra, possibly the greatest catcher ever
Dimaggio (a super star through 1950, 3 rings with Stengel) and Mantle, 2 of the top 5 or so greatest center fielders ever.
Ford, one of the greatest lefties.
If the Stengel Yankees teams didn't have 'top tier' players as well as lots of the really good variety, I am hard pressed to think of a single team that ever has. The Yankees were not a collection of good players lacking superstars, by any definition that does not exclude basically every single team in baseball history.
