I've had enough with headlines reading "Torre Rejects Yankees' Offer". Although I am a Red Sox fan, the one person I respected during the past 12 years in the Yankees' franchise was Joe Torre, the manager.
As the principal owner, George Steinbrenner, has gotten older, he has given his two sons more power in the organization. They met with him on Thursday, and presented Torre offer that Torre called "an insult". And I agree.
At the very least, Torre, a 12-year Yankee veteran with 12 consecutive play-off seasons, AL East titles, and four World Series , should have had an option for two more years with the Yankees rather than a one year conditional contract.
