BRIAN CASHMAN RUMORS
Is Yankee GM Brian Cashman Underrated?
As baseball squeezes the Yankees with their newest socialist taxes and caps, Brian Cashman works with more and more restrictions. Hampered by decisions from ownership (namely the infamous Alex Rodriguez contract) he has been tasked with cutting payroll to $189 by 2014, while meeting the always unrealistic expectations of the best fans in baseball, Cashman has excelled. Last year...

After beating the Mariners 4-3 last night, the Yankees are 25-13 on the season, which is tied for the best record in baseball with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Here are five things I’ve learned...
2013 may be Cashman’s finest hour
It’s very hard to call a team with the highest payroll in baseball the underdog, but coming in to this season things felt a little different for the New York Yankees. Everyone said they were old. Everyone said they were a lock to miss the playoffs. Everyone was bashing the General Manager, Brian Cashman. How could they win with a bunch of rag-tag guys whose best years were behind...
Has Brian Cashman lost his mind?
I haven't squawked much lately because I don't really want to be a Swanny one-note, writing nothing but gloom and doom about the state of the Yankees. Especially when it comes to the madness of Brian Cashman. He is a terrible general manager, but our lousy front office seems to be fine with no matter what he does. And the media gives Cashman a pass, too -- more than they...
Time for Brian Cashman to grow up
When Yankees GM Brian Cashman started his "look at me, I'm rappelling" nonsense a few years ago, I got hate mail from his minions for daring to criticize his immaturity. Apparently, if you act like a complete knucklehead, risking your life and health, but it's for charity, it's perfectly acceptable to some people. I wondered then about what would happen if something...
Yankees GM breaks leg skydiving
New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman gave skydiving a try on Monday, and he loved it so much he went back for seconds. In retrospect, Cashman probably wishes he had just kept it to one jump. As John Harper of the NY Daily News shared with us, Cashman went skydiving with the Golden Knights of the US Army on Monday at Homestead Air Force Base in Florida. After feeling the...
Cashman's ex lowers the boom
The Daily Murdoch sent two reporters this week to dig the latest toxic dirt on Brian Cashman's dangerous love life, which has ascended into Yankee lore with the likes of Fritz Peterson's trades and Scott Proctor's firestarter. The nut graph says that Cashman will pay his wife $1 million a year in child support until the year 2525, if man still alive, or she accepts Alphonso...

With another rappelling stunt, is Cashman signaling another deathwish deal?
At 45, Brian Cashman is just barely older than the Yankee lineup he puts on the field - at least chronologically. But if tabloid fodder counts, he's aged 10 years since 2010.So what's with his continued desire to rappel off the top of the Empire State Building of Stamford, Connecticut? He's going to do it again. As best as I can see, it's not for charity - unless...

Ok not literally, but say you had his job and you were just named the new GM for the New York Yankees.
And your first order of business is deciding is deciding who gets to live another day in pinstripes, and who will get handed their walking papers.
