A phrase uttered by the mentally handicapped portion of New York Yankees fans; used to describe any player on a former championship team, regardless of skill level. Alternatively used for any good player that isn't on the Yankees, like Albert Pujols, Joe Mauer, or Chipper Jones, because obviously being good makes you a "True Yankee" regardless of team.
Also, the opposite of "True Yankee" is any player that is never wins a title with the team. As a result, they will be labeled as un-clutch by the media regardless of actual baseball playing ability. Very notable examples include Alex Rodriguez, Jason Giambi, and the entire 1980's roster besides Don Mattingly.
A "True Yankee" carries a magical aura that allows them to play a metaphysical, other worldly form of baseball which results in hyper clutchness, which is why Luis Sojo > Alex Rodriguez.
Moron: Dude, A-Rod sucks, I miss Brosius.
Intelligent form of human life: What? Brosius was a career 94 OPS+ hitter, A-Rod's like 147.
Moron: But dude, Brosius was a true yankee.
Intelligent form of human life: /backs away quickly, consults with CIA about possible bio warfare that infects brains.

The last words in The Satanic Bible, which ends with a stamp reading only "YANKEE ROSE", in all capital letters, and in slightly inkier typing. The meaning of this is a matter of speculation, and remains a mystery, to both the public and Satanists alike.
David Lee Roth's song "Yankee Rose" came out around the time of the "Satanic Panic" hysteria of the 1980s, a time when many rock bands were falsely accused of practicing or promoting devil worship, or including subliminal messages on their albums.

The anxiety one feels upon overhearing someone say something 'patriotic' that in reality, is terrifying.
The political heebie-jeebies.
"Usually I can just tune out Dale's rants about China but when he suggested Glen Beck run for president I got the yankee doodles."
Marcia: I might have voted for John McCain but there was just something in his smile that gave me the yankee doodles.
Louis: You base who you vote for off of their smiles? It's people like you who insist on beauty pageant elections that give me the yankee doodles.

when you really want to call someone a tool but the singular "tool" doesn't cover the tool-ness of the situation. A Yankee Workshop is a glorified tool shed which is where you keep any number of tools.
Dude 1: Are you seeing X right now? He's being a complete tool.
Dude 2: Nah man, X's being a fucking yankee workshop!
When someone preemptively flips you the bird after doing something where they should be on the receiving end. Also known as the "Yankee flipper."
I was gettin' off 128 headin' to the packie when some asshat cuts me off and gives me the Yankee flippah.
the ultimate game-changer - calling Yankee Swap at any point during any game (chess, Settlers of Catan, etc.) allows for an abandonment of the previous rules and the reign of a new order.
Player 1: "Hey man, you can't just trade in one of your pawns for a queen and a rook!"
Player 2: "Whatever man, it's Yankee Swap."
