Andy had a great season this year, going 14-8 with a 4.16 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP in 32 starts with the Bombers...

With the Yankees brass finished with their internal scouting meetings and their soon to be budget meetings, it only means one thing. Time for the Yankees to go shopping, sort of.

NEW YORK – If the knock against Yankees manager Joe Girardi is that he's been overmanaging his way through his first postseason, well, let's put it this way: At least he's got plenty of help. Girardi has enough computer programs to make stat geeks envious and the best scouting department money can buy.
