Ten days since we last posted to our Yankees 'n More blog. Truth be told, there has not been anything to post, so we thought we'd chime in this morning just to let people know we're still here...waiting...and waiting...and waiting.
Sadly, there seems to be no end to the waiting. New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman might as well have spent the entire winter, at least to this point, sliding down buildings on a rope while dressed in some ridiculous kid's Halloween costume. For all we know, he has.
The New York Yankees, for all their financial might, have more holes in their pitching staff than a 20-pound brick of Swiss cheese, yet Cashman does nothing.
Well, to say Cashman has done nothing might be a little harsh. He has signed a few broken down pieces of $#!t, none of whom have been relevant for at least three years. And he did, for the second time in six months, butcher a chance to add Cliff Lee to a rotation that currently has only one reliable pitcher in it.
For his part, Cashman continues to insist the Yankees are in "a great spot." He's either a liar, delusional or stupid. Or, perhaps, some combination of the three. We're less than two months from spring training, the free agent shelves are void of game-changers and the Yankees have nothing but question marks behind CC Sabathia.
From the end of July on last season, the Yankees played .500 baseball. That's two-and-a-half consecutive months of mediocrity, and the incompetent Cashman has done NOTHING to improve the major league roster...NOTHING.
