Do I see Epstein doing this? Billy Beane? Didn’t think so. Cashman’s image has gone from baseball nerd to total badass in the span of six days. If you haven’t heard, during the Rafael Soriano press conference, Cashman stated that he didn’t have any part of the signing. He said that the Steinbrenner’s made the deal and he didn’t agree with it. When was the last time someone publicly argued against a Steinbrenner decision? Billy Martin maybe? Then after sticking it to the Man, Cashman proceeds to rock a bandanna and bar tend for a night in the city. Awesome stuff.
