Yankees are out!!!

[slayermin]

they had effective pitchers who filled roles, too and could shorten games to 6 innnings -- guys like Rivera setting up Wetteland, Stanton setting up Rivera, and middle relievers who just got guys out. They didn't develop all of those guys, but in signing or trading for them, they made shrewd moves that didn't hinder the long-term future of the club.

What ever happened to Ramiro Mendoza? He was another guy that complimented Rivera well.

I'd like to see Torre just leave. He gets treated like absolute garbage and he's too good for that. Let someone else be Steinbrenner's publicity whipping boy and go to a team that will feel a little more priviledged to have one of the greatest coaches of the modern era.

Torre needs to retire and live it up...he has earned it.

Torre should go manage Florida.

He would take that team to the NLCS instantaniously.

Best idea I have heard in a long time. Marlins are my 2nd favorite team.

Steinbrenner still owes Torre $13M. I don't think he'll be fired, and if he resigns, he'll be giving up that amount unless he and Georgie can work something out.

I'd imagine, however, that Cashman is going elsewhere. We'll see just how talent he is -- I suspect he'll do well.
