Yankee Stuff

Reading some disquieting rumors about the Yankee front office search.   Over the past day or so Omar Minaya's name has surfaced as being considered for a job in the front office.    Some articles have said he could even be Mark Newman's replacement.  No diggity.   He has a reputation as a very good scout, and a record as a bad GM.  So, if he comes aboard, let's hope it's in Gordon Blakley's old post and not in Mark Newman's.  

In other news, word's out that Trey Hillman, who was one of the internal options for Newman's post wants to manage or bench coach again, and that he's reached out to the Astro's.   That would suck.   He's got development talent, and the Yanks should probably re-jigger their major league coaching staff to keep him in-house.  

The three day weekend is over, so we might start hearing more Yankee news today.

Still don't feel like talking about the Giants.
