"When asked if there were any attractive outside options available, Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman responded, "We’ll see. You don’t have to be attractive right now," tweets Andy McCullough of the Newark Star-Ledger." According to McCullough, the new Yankee motto, taken directly from the Statue of Liberty is, ""Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to break [sic] free."
"Turning to Cashman's Yankees, CBS Sports' Jon Heyman pulled no punches when reviewing the club's offseason, writing that "no one had a worse spring training than baseball's most storied team, maybe ever." Heyman further reports that, in spite of their public proclamations and massive payroll, the Yanks' brass is very concerned internally about the club's prospects for 2013. Likewise, ESPN's Jim Bowden predicted that New York would finish last in the AL East, writing that the club could sport a losing record for the first time since 1995."
The inner workings of the mind of a dumpster diver. Baseball's only $228,000,000 is one pitiful mess.
