Noetsi is out. Yankees declined Skype, FaceTime and Pinstripes Plus chat, as Noetsi refused an in-person interview.

I think Cashman was also unimpressed when Noetsi said that he could manage the team from his computer room, utilizing Strat-O-Matic cards and watching the dots on ESPN game-tracker...And giving each player a special "coded nickname"...

I hope we get a new manager soon. Anybody think it might play a role with FA's? Ohtani might want to know who he's playing for... or at least he can use that in negotiations.. There is really nothing to negotiate. The Yankees say "We'll give you all of our international money" and Ohtani either takes it or doesn't. As for the new manager, Cashman is going to take his time. He is not competing against anyone as there are no other open Manager spots. So why rush the process?

Apparently Beltran is going to interview as a candidate too!! www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/21596747/carlos-beltran-interview-new-york-yankees-manager-positionNewYawka- have you see Ohtanis questionnaire that he handed out to all 30 teams? He wants them to pretty much write him an essay about why he should play for them. And that's not hyperbole. It's not all about the money, in fact, it's not about the money at all. I wish it was as simple as you say, "we'll give you all our international money"

I wish it was as simple as you say, "we'll give you all our international money" Right, if it was all about the money, Ohtani would just stay in Japan for two more years and come over when he becomes a free agent. His agent has got creative and is tyring to figure out how teams are going to use Ohtani, hopefully the Yanks keep Randy Levine far away or he could ruin everything.

Levine should be so irrelevant that we never hear, speak, or type his name. We should absolutely never see his mugly ug on the TV or have to look at a photograph of him.
If you look at him, you should turn to stone. If you speak his name, your tongue should fall out. If you hear his name, your ears should cease functioning, or perhaps worse you should develop the worst case of tinnitus in the history of mankind, and it should be in the old "Barney the Dinosaur" tune. If you type his name, your fingers should curl into a maddening and painful position.
Yet, we do. We hear of him, we see him. We speak of him, and we type about him. Why? Why?? Why???
Because it can be assumed, that his mother loves him...Yes, even his hair. His hair do is one of the worst ideas in human history for anyone who is NOT a pharmacist. (My apologies if any of you are one. Some of them are normal people, just like you. Unless you happen to have that hairdo...)

I've heard that strange things happen down on that Baja. Maybe it's all true...It's enough to make them want to refuse an orgy-filled evening with you, isn't it???

Hard to know how much is fact and how much is bullshit, but this says Meulens or Boone with Beltran joining in some other capacity www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/yankees-hensley-meulens-aaron-boone-manager-article-1.3670751That said, here’s what we know about all the candidates: Aaron Boone: It doesn’t matter if, other than the just-retired Beltran, he was the only one of the first five candidates interviewed that had no prior managing or coaching experience. It’s his knowledge of the game as a highly respected ESPN TV analyst, his communication skills and his overall likeability that would make him an instant popular choice. It doesn’t hurt either that he comes from a three generational major league family, whose father, Bob, managed the Royals and the Reds. Cashman fancies himself as an “out-of-the-box” thinker and this would be the ultimate, bold “out-of-the-box” choice. Hensley Meulens: In many ways the native of Curacao, too, would be an out-of-the-box choice in that his only managerial experience was as manager of the Netherlands in two World Baseball Classics, and was only just named a bench coach by the Giants after serving as their hitting coach for eight years. But he checks even more boxes than Boone as he came up in baseball through the Yankee system, speaks five languages, was hailed for his communication skills by the Giants’ players and already has a close relationship with Yankee shortstop Didi Gregorius from the WBC. I’m told that Giants vice president of baseball operations Brian Sabean, who promoted Meulens to bench coach, presumably for the purpose of grooming him to eventually replace Bruce Bochy, gave him the highest recommendation. Carlos Beltran: Impressed Cashman and his staff with the sheer force of his personality and knowledge of the game. If he hadn’t just retired and had spent perhaps just one year as a coach or minor league manager, he might be the favorite. As it is, he will be with the Yankees in some capacity next year, either as a bench or hitting coach for the new manager or a special assistant to Cashman. Whatever he wants to do. Eric Wedge: The only candidate with major-league managing experience, Wedge was only interviewed by Cashman because other GMs, former and present, gave him high grades. But there was no way, Cashman was going to go to Steinbrenner with a recommendation of a manager who had failed two other places, Seattle and Cleveland, with seven losing seasons in 10 years. In addition, his low key personality would have never gone over in New York. Rob Thompson: He was only in the process out of loyalty to the Yankee organization — 28 years in various capacities, most importantly spring training coordinator the past few seasons. Ordinarily going from bench coach to manager would have been a natural ascension. The fact that it wasn’t — and Thompson was again thrown into the mix of candidates — told you he was never a serious candidate for the job. Thompson is part of the old regime and will be out of the organization and probably Phillies bench coach. Chris Woodward: It’s not quite clear as to why the Dodger third base coach was one of the candidates, other than perhaps Cashman wanted to talk to someone who was part of Dave Roberts’ staff in Los Angeles. Early on, he had talked about wanting a “Dave Roberts-type," someone who was in to the analytics and had good communication skills, especially with young players. Whatever, it doesn’t appear as if Woodward, the former light-hitting utility infielder who spent a couple of seasons with the Mets and had never before interviewed for a manager’s job, knocked anyone’s socks off.
