They exercised their 20-25.

That's right. He's a free agent at the end of the year.

They did not give Aaron Boone an extension today off the World Series, which is why I think what I said mattered.

Because if they do lose Wonsoto, we've seen Aaron Boone, the manager without Wonsoto, not get to the World Series.

So they did not tie themselves long-term because then it's going to come back to Aaron Boo and the strategy.

But it's also something the Yankees have done a lot with managers over the years because if you recall when they fired Joe Girardi,

which was a term that some people disagreed with me on because they didn't fire him as contract expired.

Kind of like what will happen with Aaron at the end of this season.

They didn't bring them back.

They didn't fire them. They're just like, yeah, we're good. We're going to go hire somebody else.

So it does seem like a part of the Howe Cashman strategy, even with Cashman himself, because remember

last year his contract expire too, is to let these contracts expire and then say, we're going to

bring you back or not. But I think what we need to realize, what I need to realize,

because trust me, I'm part of this too.

I love breaking down managing decisions, right?

We all do.

Can you believe that he brought the lefty end?

Can you believe that?

I think what Brian Cashman is telling you in a very loud voice

is all that strategy stuff,

that's not how they decide who the manager is.

That's not the number one thing in the port when talking about managers.
