Manager Merry Go Round

by @ 11:26 am. Filed under 2007 Season

Well, it’s begun.  Joe Girardi was in for an interview and I like him, but I could see the relationship being a little Billy Martinesque.  Girardi got in trouble for running his mouth (in a good way) for the Marlins and they showed him the door so you wonder how George would deal with that.  Of course if he puts the Yankees back on a playoff series winning track, I’m sure he’d be able to tolerate him.

Tony LaRussa took himself out of the running as he’ll return to the Cardinals while Don Mattingly gave himself a vote of no confidence.  Tony Pena would be an interesting choice and he’s put in his time the past couple of years with the Yankees.

The manager can only do so much though and the Yankees will have to have a solid offseason to get back to the promised land.  Alex Rodriguez should be a priority as should getting another pitcher or two.  And you also wonder why Brian Cashman hasn’t taken more heat with his expanded role this year.  Maybe he gets a free pass this year but if he can’t get it done in 2008, it could be a GM search next year.
