Reading the Tea Leaves
The Yankees decided on a manager, they just haven't made an announcement:
"I can tell you at this point, the family and the baseball people are pretty much in agreement," Steinbrenner said. "We are close; still a few details to work out and some more thinking on it. That's about it."
Despite the fact that the team is "close" to a decision, Steinbrenner stressed that nobody has been offered the job. When an offer is made, the team will have to work out a contract with the new manager before making an announcement, which is likely to take place on Tuesday at the Stadium.
The Daily News takes some of Steinbrenner's statements as indicating Mattingly is most likely to get the job. We'll see.
