May 1, 2007 -- General manager Brian Cashman says if you are looking to blame somebody for the Yankees being in last place and 61/2 games behind the Red Sox, he is your guy.

General manager Brian Cashman says if you are looking to blame somebody for the Yankees being in last place and 61/2 games behind the Red Sox, he is your guy.

... "I feel bad he had to go through all that [garbage] again. He had to go through it at the end of last year, too. It’s wrong. Joe Torre doesn’t need a pat on the back from me or anybody else because he is a tough SOB. But he has been there 12 years and he doesn’t have a contract for next year? That’s sad." --Zimmer (George King, New York Post ) THE REST "The old Fort Myers-to-Beijing-to-Tokyo trip. I think I'll stop [complaining] about the bus ride to Vero Beach." --
