Cashman pinned his hopes and his job on two young pitchers that nearly everyone here was ripping me for saying they should be traded [at least one of them] for Santana.
Now that the two pitchers are in the minors and won't be seen anytime soon, it's time to take to task the man who has killed the Yankees. Cashman. Cashman took over from Watson and rode the coat tails of a phenomenal team to "win" 3 World Series in which he had little to do with. Since 2000, he hasn't done anything of significance.
Even this off-season, Gene Michael, who is in my opinion the absolute best person in the Yankee front office that I've seen in my tenure as a Yankee fan, said you have to make the deal for Santana. No question about it.
Here's hoping the Steinbrenners realize that the best person they have in running the team [Gene Michael] is playing fiddle to an idiot who wouldn't understand a baseball if you shoved it up his ass [Brian Cashman].
Memo to Jacko: The Yankees overhype their prospects. Consider it a lesson learned. Hope you practice medicine better than you evaluate pitchers.
