Joe deserves better than this for what he's meant to the Yanks for the past decade.

Funny you say that. I'm sitting right now here trying to explain to my girl how pissed off a lot of Yanks fans were when Torre was first hired and how it's a minor miracle that Steinbrenner has gone this long without firing his manager.

He is a class act, but he'll still collect $7 mil next year, so I can't really feel for him.

He has his flaws as a manager, but it's not his fault the offense has no chemistry from the front office just adding an All-Star (or two) to the roster every year, or that aside from Wang they haven't developed any pitching since Rivera.

Bad move.

Hard to imagine Torre managing ever again. What on Earth would be the point for him? I would have went with Girardi
