New Yankees GM Excited for New Year, With An Announcement

            Going into the offseason the Yankees were a disappointment. After 15 trades, a GM switch, 3 free agent signings and 4 re-signings, the Yankees are leading the race for the wild card.  Under 40 year old general manager Jay Piazza the former Braves GM, now Yankees GM the team is set to compete for a world series.  

           Piazza had this to say, “The Yankees were a mess, no pitching except Shuman and Mark, no hitting except Murillo and Hernandez, now we have one of the best rotations in baseball, tied for 4^th lowest in the American League in runs allowed and 3^rd in runs scored. The Yankees led by a 4 new starters, 4 new hitters and 4 new relievers this team has the talent to win the World Series. With that said this is about the new Assistant GM of the Yankees, Mr. P.S. The former World Series lead champion Diamondbacks GM who we the Yankees organization believes will help our team to the same success… We will have an interview setup in 2 weeks for all questions for our great Assistant GM.”

            Piazza clearly believes highly in this team and it’s new Assistant GM. As we believe in our GMs, and team change is bound to happen. From 56 players and 45.9 million dollars and 8 draft picks a lot of bodies have money have been moved from the Yankees organization deals. Money has been spent on big names such as Jim Cote (trade), Brian Colley(signing), Jose Hernandez (extension), Max Shuman (extension), Vaughn Greensite (both trade and extension), Julio Ramos (extension), Dave Putnam (trade), and Dennis Clapsaddle (FA signing, extention). For a grand total of 112.35 million per year and 443.4 million total contracts that’s more than 440x the amount people make per year.

          I’ll see you guys in 2 weeks (baring something major happens) as this is your journalist for the State of The Yankees God Bills, we hope you will read all your Yankees news here thanks.
