Dear Yankees Writers, Settle the Eff Down, You Have Not Won Anything Yet

Yes the Yankees are in first place and have taken a sizable lead in the division but that does not equal a turning of the tide in the rivalry and does not equal a World Series championship as some would have you believe. Take this joke of an article from John Harper in the NY Daily News:

the Yankees on the verge of burying the Red Sox deep in the standings with a four-game sweep, the Rivalry has taken a rather stunning turn back to more familiar Yankee dominance.

And it’s at least partly because the Yankees, for a change, are winning the battle of the front offices. Going back to the winter when he swooped in to steal Mark Teixeira from the Red Sox, Cashman this year is outmaneuvering Theo.

So Cashman is outmaneuvering Theo by spending huge amounts of money to get Teixeira, Sabathia, and Burnett? Did Cashman somehow cause Dice-K, Wake, Lowrie, and Bay to get hurt? Theo’s offseason moves with Penny and Smoltz may not be paying off but that does not make Cashman a better GM. For years Cashman has made bad choices with and failed to win with the highest payroll in baseball. When the bats wake up the Sox will be ready to win this year and they have a farm system that can keep them winning. The Yankees will have many players that will be past their prime next year or they will need to replace including: Damon, Jeter, Posada, Rivera, Matsui, and Pettitte. George Costanza could do a better job as the GM of the Yankees than Cashman has done.
