Hank Hearts Cash

From Kat O'Brien -

"We haven't discussed [Brian Cashman's] extension yet, but he's part of the Yankee family and has been for 21 years. I don't see any reason to not continue that."

"He's busy, we're busy, there just hasn't been any detailed discussion about that," Steinbrenner said. "Is Brian's job on the line because of what the team does this year? No, that's sensationalism to say it's based on 2008 ... I'm very pleased with what Brian and Damon [Oppenheimer] and Mark Newman and all the scouts and people have done with the drafts, with the last three drafts."

Looks like Brian can write his own ticket when it comes to Hank.

First time ever that Hank's said something worth listening to.

Just in case, I'll bookmark this one when he fires Cashman on November 1st for the "unforgivable sin" of the Yanks not winning the World Series.

Retaining Oppenheimer long term is about as important as keeping Cashman.

And be sure to reference it if you are wrong, not only if you are right.
