With reports coming out stating that Joe Torre would be out in New York, the Yankees offered Torre the highest contract in the MLB, worth $5 million for one year, but Torre turned it down! After all those reports, he's the one leaving willingly.Good for Torre. He was one of the best managers in MLB history, definitely going to the Hall of Fame, and I felt he was disrespected by the Yankees organization. After winning 4 World Series titles as his reign in New York, I completely think Cashman and Steinbrenner treated the situation terribly. We here at TSR definitely wish the best to Joe Torre.
But now, who's next for the Yankees? I personally think the Yankees should go after their own broadcaster and 2006 NL Manager of the Year, Joe Girardi. I can't believe this guy was let go in Florida, but one team's loss could be another team's treasure. The Yankees would be silly if they didn't go after Joe, but hey, who knows? They let one Joe slip past them, what's to say they don't do the same with this Joe?
