Yankees GM Cashman Defends Trade Deadline Strategy

News summary

Brian Cashman, the New York Yankees' general manager, faced criticism from WFAN host Brandon Tierney regarding the team's perceived lack of urgency during the recent MLB trade deadline. Cashman defended the Yankees' acquisitions, highlighting their addition of Juan Soto and retention of key players like Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole, asserting that the team's ability to win the World Series will ultimately define their success. Tierney challenged the front office's decisions on underperforming players like Joey Gallo and Aaron Hicks, questioning the urgency compared to past seasons. Despite the Yankees' strong offensive lineup, concerns about their pitching depth have emerged, particularly after failing to bolster their bullpen at the deadline. Cashman, who has been with the Yankees since 1998, acknowledged the pressure to deliver a championship, as the team has not won since 2009. While some commentators believe the organization is actively trying to win, the lingering doubts from fans about the Yankees' commitment to victory remain palpable.
