I agree Torre has to go. He's acted like a manager on auto-pilot the last three years. Let's see, Torre's record the last 3?
Hmmm
Was the first manager in the HISTORY of championship playoff sports to manage a team who was up 3 games to zero....TO LOSE THE SERIES!!!!!!!
Then, got blown out the consecutive 2 years in round one of the playoffs.
To his credit, the 11 years he was there the Yankees have won their division every year, and won 4 WS titles. Which in lesser cities across the nation and other parts of the country may be o.k. But in New York??? Division championships = nothing!
Lou Piniella??? Well, I would have preferred the Yankees hung on to Randolph so that if Torre ever got fired or retired, Randolph would be the Yankee coach, but Steinbrenner is racist, so that woont happen.
We'll see. The Yankees arent gonna fall off the face of the earth just becauase Torre is no longer the manager.
