Reading Joe Girardi’s tea leaves
—
Over the weekend, a crack appeared in the Yanks’ Front Office façade. It wasn’t an outburst from Hank or a strongly-worded press release from Howard Rubenstein. No one was fire, and no one was put on notice. The crack was this public spat over the Alex Rodriguez situation. It ...
