i think instead of making a bullshit offer, they should have told joe thanks, but we're going to move in a new direction. we appreciate the last 12 years, they've been great. have a nice little send-off and that's that.

but apparently the two boys wanted everyone to understand without any doubt that it's business as usual in yankee-ville.

I think Dannie and Prep HHH are colluding under the table.

So prior to Mattingly the Yankees won 22 World Series. Then in his 14 years there they can't even manage to win a division title. He leaves and they immediately win 4 World Series in 5 years. Then they bring him back as hitting coach and then bench coach and they have failed to win a World Series in all five seasons despite being heavy favorites to do so. Sure sounds like a winner to me. They might as well just hire Isaiah Thomas.

i agree with those i've heard on the radio, that this deal was designed to be rejected. it worked. if they really didn't want torre any more, they should have said so, handled it better than they did.

i wonder what the horrific facial expressions would have been, had he actually accepted?! oh, to be a fly on that wall had joe said ok!
