Doing his best to fill the vacuum that is a long winter without much in the way of significant Yankees news, Hal Steinbrenner insisted Thursday that he has "no problem" with the way Brian Cashman is doing his job. In an interview with the New York Post, the man in charge of overseeing the Yankees' operations said the perception that a rift has grown between the Steinbrenners and their general manager is nothing but "a bunch of drummed-up drama."
Though that notion first gained traction during the contentious negotiations with Derek Jeter earlier this offseason and deepened when the Yankees couldn't close the deal with marquee free agent Cliff Lee, everything came to a head at the press conference to introduce Rafael Soriano. It was in that venue that Cashman stated quite publicly that it wasn't his idea to sign the reliever to a three-year, $35 million contract.
