Joe Torre rejects 5 million deal with yankees... for 1 year.

he was making 7.5 million a year ;

yankees look like they will be getting a new manager

StuartD · 10-18-2007, 01:40 PM

I would love to be in the position where I could just say "$5 million? Nah, no thanks."

dissipate · 10-18-2007, 01:42 PM

He's made his money, guy probly wants to spend some time with his family and grandkids

TampaToker · 10-18-2007, 01:43 PM

Talk about losing perspective. What a prick. Whatever happened to doing it for the love of the game.

after 12 years the love goes away...lol

Good for joe torre, Reached postseason all 12 seasons, has 4 world series titles and so on and so on, why would he take a pay cut, hell be coaching a new team this year.

Porno Dan · 10-18-2007, 01:57 PM

There goes their dynasty, A Rod, Rivera, Posada will all go play for someone else.

It's funny, Roger Clemens said one reason he HAD to make a comeback was he couldn't relax at home knowing how much a week he wasn't going to make if he turned down the 24 million offer. Set his kids for life with just half a season.

Raul_Mallcom · 10-18-2007, 02:20 PM

I think he said no because Steinbrenner was talking shit about how he was going to get rid of him if they lost. Well they lost and they give him a contract extension. That contradicts what Steinbrenner first said. I Love the Yankess but fuck Steinbrenner.

Brother Bilo · 10-18-2007, 02:25 PM

I doubt this decision had anything to do with money. My guess is that he was just tired of dealing with crazy ass Steinbrenner. I know I couldn't work for that guy very long.

Probably wouldn't make it a year without murder/suicide crossing my mind. Fuck Steinbrenner.

I say, good for Torre. He'll love his life much more once he's away from the madness of the Yankees.

fris · 10-18-2007, 02:26 PM

2.5 mill short and being called out during the playoffs not surprised

Alright, now that sarcasm time is over, back to reality. How many teams would kill to make the postseason every year? This is why the Yankees are the most passionatly hated team in all of sports.

Fuck the Yankees!!!

Eric · 10-19-2007, 01:13 PM

I would not be surprised if you see the Yankee's come back and make another offer to Joe. He just made it clear in his interview why he didn't accept the offer. I think you will start to see players leaning on the management.

I personally think what Torre accomplished in 12 years was amazing. Dealing with all the BS in NY and being able to keep teams focused. I would have given him 3 years packed with loot and incentives to boot. Plus given him the reigns and understanding that I will not fuck with him during the season.

Right now Yankee management is making a mistake. In the end it will hurt them more than they know.

Beaver Bob · 10-19-2007, 01:35 PM

I liked him better when he was managing St. Louis

But good for him, he had a great career with NY, I don't blame him for not taking the pay cut. Its a slap in the face.

axelcat · 10-19-2007, 02:01 PM

He is clearly the Jerry West of baseball, thats how good he is, A huge mistake by the yankees.

Jman · 10-19-2007, 03:32 PM

Good for him, he brought the team to playoffs for how many years now???

And they want to give him a paycut. He's better then that and he proved it by declining the offer

StickyGreen · 10-19-2007, 03:53 PM

The SF Giants should try to pick him up...

Rodent · 10-19-2007, 05:07 PM

How many players are going to split or try to split that joint now that Torre is gone

I will expect either the Yankee's to see the error in their ways and come back to Joe with a bigger better offer, or move on quickly to Donnie Baseball. He is probably the only guy they can hire right now to save from losing too many players to FA.
