N.Y. Yankees- Derek Jeter and Brian Cashman
Although N.Y. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman and boss Hal Steinbrenner have been booed quite often in the recent days, Derek Jeter introduction as the new Yankees’ GM seems highly unworkable. When Derek Jeter said in his Hall of Fame speech that he hopes to “see a lot more of you,” it spread a sense of discomposure within the N.Y. Yankee fans.
Despite the fans wishing Brian Cashman to be dismissed from the post, he has proved his worth for the N.Y. Yankees. With 25 years of winning records, that’s a lot of winning, he has won 4 titles and his team has competed every year with a strong motive.
“Brian Cashman, at least if I run the Yankees, Brian Cashman has four weeks to earn an extension,” WFAN’s Brandon Tierney said. “Now I could be really mean and say even if they perform well over the next four weeks,”
“He still doesn’t deserve an extension. … Brian Cashman should, in terms of job status, should be hanging by a thread.” Elaborated Brandon Tierney on his show “Tiki and Tierney” pointing fingers at the N.Y.’ GM
Will the N.Y. Yankees ever see Derek Jeter as their General Manager?
N.Y. Yankees fans admired Derek Jeter when he came back in the Bronx during his Hall of Fame induction tribute before a game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Brian Cashman and Hal Steinbrenner were booed by the majority, to which Jeter said, “Let me tell you something, you’d better cheer, trust me.”
Derek Jeter was previously the CEO of the Miami Marlins and stepping up as the general manager for the N.Y. Yanks could be considered devaluation. “I don’t know what Hal [Steinbrenner’s] thinking, I don’t even care right now,” Brandon Tierney really took a swing at N.Y. Yankees GM.
“… Ever since they won the championships, not ’09, all the championships before that, we know who built the team and it wasn’t Brian Cashman. it was obviously Stick Michael and Bob Watson.”
