Yankees GM Brian Cashman agrees in principle to a new contract; Steinbrenner points to the offense
Brian Cashman has agreed in principle to a new contract to remain the Yankees' senior vice president and general manager, he said Wednesday, with manager Aaron Boone set to return for a 10th season, MLB.com reported. Owner Hal Steinbrenner, who said he was disappointed by the Yankees' ouster by the Rays in the American League Division Series after a 93-win regular season, declined to blame Cashman or Boone and identified underperforming position players as the main cause. "The players didn't live up to their end of the bargain in the playoffs," Steinbrenner said. The deal keeps Cashman, the game's longest-tenured general manager, in the job for his 30th season.
