Good for Torre. WTF incentive for a manager reaching playoff rounds?

The Yanks hierarchy is in shambles.

I believe paying him $5 million a year makes him the highest paid manager in the game...thats pretty nice given the last two years your team has had nearly a 200 million payroll but laid a egg in the first round both times.

It's also a 25% pay cut. Why? Because his "ace" was [censored] in the playoffs and Joba threw a wild pitch.

If you don't want him back, then don't bring him back. What's the point of wanting him back but demanding he take less pay?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because he's not worth the salary we have been paying him.

Pls explain the factors that go into deciding he's worth $5 million but not $7.5. And on top of that, he's only worth $3 mil more if he win the World Series? The team certainly benefits a lot more than that if he does.

To me, you either make the decision that he's the best man for your job, or he's not. Not that's he's the best man at x price. It's not a player we're talking about where a contract value can vary in the tens of millions based on this decisions. It's $2.5 mil. To the richest team in the sport.
