MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: The Yankees’ authorities, namely general manager Brian Cashman and skipper Aaron Boone, held their end-of-the-season conference with one main takeaway: the need to get back to the World Series.
“Back to the drawing board,” Cashman said. “Even though we have fallen short against Houston, it’s obviously any of the [teams] that are standing in our way between us and winning a World Series. We’ve got to improve ourselves and give ourselves the best shot.”
Like owner Hal Steinbrenner, Cashman gave a vote of confidence to Boone, saying he is “a very good manager,” and outlined the plans for the offseason in a general way.
