I'd guess he still easily would have. Add in about 12 all star appearances before your cutoff and going out of his mind over the course of five world series (especially for the Yankees).
But yeah, his career would've had a better legacy if he'd bowed out a few years earlier. Probably hung around for the salary too. Looks like actually made more money in those last 5 zero WAR years than the rest of his career combined
