It has officially been 21 years since Brian Cashman was named general manager of the Yankees, and four World Series championships, 12 AL East titles and 17 postseason appearances have followed. Cashman, who began as an intern for the organization back in 1986, won the World Series with the help of the greatest team in baseball history in his first season as GM, and there’s been plenty of success stories ever since.
On the anniversary of Cashman’s introduction into his current position, we’re offered with another opportunity to appreciate Cashman for what he is: the best GM in MLB today.
