Cashman Stays on as General Manager for New York Yankees
NEW YORK (AP) -- Brian Cashman is staying on as general manager of the New York Yankees, agreeing to a three-year contract that runs through 2011.
The Yankees missed the playoffs this season for the first time since 1993. Cashman took over as GM in 1997 and his current deal was set to expire at the end of October.
The move Tuesday was expected, though there had been rumblings that Cashman might be interested in running another club. Yankees co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner told Cashman earlier this season that the team wanted him back.
