The new brain trust of the Yankees have been overshadowed by that pesky thing called the World Series, and seem to be sick of all this talk about people's homes being burned in Southern California, so they released a statement saying that they are looking to set-up a meeting with A-Rod, and they are close to hiring a new manager. Of course I use the term brain trust very loosely.
Apparently Brian Cashman leaving a voice-mail for A-Rod's agent, Scott Boras, has become news. I wonder if A-Rod and Boras sat around the answering machine replaying the message, laughing, drinking black label and smoking cigars that they lit with $100 bills. Of course, they did this in between various rounds of hunting convicts that have nothing to live for except a glimpse of freedom.
I'm guessing Don Mattingly will be the new puppet, errrr Manager. As a Met fan I've always had a thing against Mattingly. For some reason he was always considered a bigger success than Keith Hernandez, even though Hernandez was as valuable to his team, won a World Series, had a better moustache, and exuded pure awesomeness. Who'd have thought a coke problem would be such a factor. Go figure.
