Hopefully Air Hern's agent isn't reading Adam Rubin's blog:

In some comments on game 7, Willie makes another contribution to the pile of needlessly colorful assessments of rookie/young players:

" … You can look back, and I don’t, and think about what you could have done, should have done. The bottom line is that thing played out the way we wanted to. As a matter of fact, even better, because we had our best hitter, a Cardinal killer, at the plate, one hit from the World Series. I wouldn’t change a thing. Who knows? I could have put Anderson Hernandez in there in front of 50,000 people – a 21-year-old kid – and he could have ---- his pants.

Well, we all know the status of Sleepy Joe Torre isn't so great with the management of ESPN's The New York Yankees. But how, in the midst of all this success, is the Omar-Willie Relationship going?

From the AP via ESPN:

Minaya praised manager Willie Randolph for his decisions against the Dodgers, saying "he took some bold chances."

"I was like, OK?" Minaya said, sounding surprised by the moves, which he didn't elaborate on.

These guys have run a tight ship this year, in that no management rifts or even mild arguments have been leaked to the papers. And that is with guys like Ledee on the roster -cmon there must have been some headbutting. Is Omar baffled by Willie's willingness to pull pitchers at the first sign of trouble? We can only speculate.

But as they say, winning cures everything. I guess we'll have to wait til the post-season to get any dirt.
