Today was the first day of a new era in Yankees baseball. Out is Joe Torre, one of the most loved and successful managers in Yankees history. In, Joe Girardi, a main component of the Yankees dynasty in the late 1990's and manager of the year in 2006 for the Florida Marlins.
Girardi beat out the beloved Yankee Captain, no not Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly for the job this week. Now he inherits the most prestigious position in Major League Baseball and a truck load of problems.
The day before he accepted the position, Alex Rodriguez, in an announcement during the final game of the 2007 World Series, stated he would opt out of the remaining years of his contract with the New York Yankees.
Yesterday, two of the Yankees remaining members of the Yankees dynasty team's, Jorge Posada and Mariano Rivera announced they would file for free agency. While the Yankees management will most likely offer these two players whatever they want to stay with the Yankees, there is still the possibility of the Yankees losing two of their best players.
Andy Pettitte and Bobby Abreu, two veterans needed greatly by the Yankees both have options for 2008. Bobby Abreu's option is controlled by the Yankees, meaning they can decide if he comes back or not. The option is worth 16 million dollars though and may be considered too much to keep Abreu for one more year.
Pettittes option on the other hand, is controlled entirely by him. Andy Pettitte, another member of the dynasty teams of the late 90's has a close relationship with both Roger Clemens and Joe Torre. Now that both may be gone, there may not be anything holding Pettitte in New York.
Consider this, as of this moment the New York Yankees opening day roster is up in the air. The Yankees are already without a third baseman, a position that yielded them 54 home runs and 154 RBI's. They may be without a catcher, with no replacement in line. Jorge Posada finished in the top 5 in the majors in average, hitting .338 and had 90 RBI's. They may be without a closer, with a bullpen that is already in trouble, their one mainstay for the last 13 years has been Mariano Rivera. They may be without Bobby Abreu, who had an off year but still managed over 100 rbi's. Andy Pettitte was the team leader in strikeouts and had 15 wins. The Yankees could be losing over 350 RBI's and 80 home runs, 15 wins and 30 saves. This is worst case scenario but with everything that has gone on so far this season, nothing is out of the question.
