As John Sterling returns to the broadcast booth for the New York Yankees, we put together a few moments to remind everyone why he's the best in the business.
So on Tuesday, at the MLB general managers meeting , when Pinstripes' GM Brian Cashman barked at the media, "I think we’re pretty f–king good, personally. I’m proud of our people," it is hard to take the 25-year veteran GM seriously. Cashman's comments were so out of touch and defensive, Yankees fans had better prepare for a long winter of nothing.
If New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman wants to add to his World Championship legacy in the Bronx, then he needs play some of his precious prospect-cards, now. With Aaron Judge's big toe in question that it could be a problem for, at least, the remainder of the season, it's time for Cashman to go all-in before the trade deadline in a few weeks.
Injuries have piled up for the New York Yankees this season. However, Carlos Rodón, Giancarlo Stanton and Josh Donaldson are all getting closer to returning to the Major League roster. That leaves the question, which players will be going?

The Major League Baseball All Star Game used to be a very hot commodity and a must watch event every year. There is less appeal to me in the All Star Game now.
