STRIKE3 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Until spring training actually starts, with Torre at the helm, anything is possible. I'll be curious to see, once a decision is finalized, how quick some players make their decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick1 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 ESPN is saying he is gone. Look for Donny Baseball to be the next coach. He's one of my all time favorite players! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question I have is this: What????? Is Joe going to be a Yankee next year or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Dad Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 CBS Sportsline is reporting that Torre is gone. One reason being the paycut that he would have to take. 5 million for 1 year. I'd take it. Mattingly and Girardi are the two leading candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halfback20 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Yeah, you're right, their business model has been hugely unsuccessful. :walk: They did good getting where they are, but lately they've been wrong on a lot of things. They were dead wrong on Eli Manning's injury, yet they stuck to their guns and said he was out a month. They said "the Giants report that he is day to day" but that their "sources" said he was out 1 month. How many games did he miss? 0. They were too proud or stubborn to admit they were wrong. Then they said Alex Smith was out for the season. Wrong again. He is playing this sunday. Then they said Torre would re-sign. Wrong again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigblueinsanity Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Wow I thought the same thing you guys did, on ESPN it said Torre was gonna take a one year deal?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellalumni40 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Pretty big news. I like how the Yanks released all the info on what he turned down. It makes them look less like the bad guy. How many coaches make 5 mil a year right now? I really liked Joe, but sometimes its time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
