"After Cashman secured more power within the Yankees before the 2006 season, Torre felt that Cashman was mostly interested in basing decisions on statistical analysis and practicality. That created a division with Torre, who said he often reminded Cashman that there was a 'heartbeat' in baseball."
A heartbeat that can later be insulted in your book for cash.

sigh.
seamheads: i can’t quantify something so fuck it.

Cashman doesn't follow the Yankee way!!!!!
For those children who claimed they’ve been a fan of their favorite team all their life, or even since they were about four or five years old: bullshit. There’s always that certain event or certain player that draws to the sport and draws you to a team. For me, Nomar Garciaparra was that reason. - Nick Coviello: I Try To See Rocco, But All I Think Is Nomar; 1/9/09
it's the yankee way now.
this is like a culture rift in any business. doesn’t matter what the basis of the difference in outlook is. someone wins and the loser complains. happened long before sabermetrics was a word and will happen long after.
Sorry, forgot the /sarcasm tag.
