A piece authored by Anthony McCarron of the NY Daily News has reaction from Jorge Posada on what has become the talk of New York – The Yankee Years tome penned by Tom Verducci.
During the article, Posada says Joe Torre was like a father figure to him and that he didn’t think the [...]

If you missed ‘Larry King Live’ yesterday, here’s an edited transcript of Larry King’s conversation with the legendary controversial, Joe Torre.
Joe Torre went on “Larry King Live” and defended his forthcoming book, The Yankee Years, noting that he is proud of it, despite negative reactions from Yankee fans and the baseball community. Torre even went so far as to defend the book while leaving the CNN set, saying that he made the [...]

According to Wally Matthews, the Yankee organization is quietly fuming, and Joe will join the likes of Jim Bouton and be banned from Yankee functions.
That [...]

From Neil Best:
That the Yankees of the former manager’s final six seasons were a self-absorbed, overpaid imitation of the famously gritty bunch that brought him four rings in his first six years.
“It was just not an unselfish team,” Torre says of the revelation that hit him in 2002.
