Prop bet time.

I'll lay $100 on the line that Torre doesn't get fired all year. 1:1. Who wants it?

I agree that Girardi, and not Mattingly, should be the replacement if/when Torre is fired.

Steinbrenner, however, would have hired Girardi to be the bench coach if he also believed this.

100% agreed...which in part is why he didn't get fired for Pinella last season...The Yankee brass has been grooming Mattingly has the heir apparent for the past couple of seasons now, and it would be a big slap in his face if they brought someone else in , despite having better qualifications.

you hit the nail right on the head...
i'm still dissapointed they didn't get pinella tho... I wanted them to get him after their slow start last year

"The season is still very young, but up to now the results are clearly not acceptable to me or to Yankee fans," Steinbrenner said in a statement. "However, Brian Cashman, our general manager, Joe Torre, our manager, and our players all believe that they will turn this around quickly.

"I believe in them. I am here to support them in any way to help them accomplish this turnaround. It is time to put excuses and talk away. It is time to see if people are ready to step up and accept their responsibilities. It is time for all of them to show me and the fans what they are made of.

"Let's get going. Let's go out and win and bring a world championship back to New York. That's what I want."

It's pretty obvious he's not mentally and physically all there and not quite the force he once was.

He should really bring in Donald Trump as his Smithers.
