Take Your Time Joe Girardi

New York Yankees skipper Joe Girardi wants to explore his options and take a deep look at the vacancy in Chicago with the Cubs. You can’t blame the man either. With a depleted team and a aging roster the concerns do run through his mind.

Joe Girardi has been with the Yankees for six seasons and he has a 2009 World Series championship to come with it. But Joe will take his time to make his decision to see where he and his family want to be.

The signs are pointing that they’ll stay in New York because Girardi feels that he’s a Yankee by heart but the money that the Chicago Cubs will pay him will make him one of the top paid managers in the sport. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman went on the radio today to say that the club will wait on Girardi’s decision and that they want him back.

I think the Cubs open vacancy would be a great opportunity for Girardi to get paid, work with young prospects and have more power in the organization. Girardi can be the next Bill Parcells and chase the money and build a losing franchise to respectability. A manager finds pleasure in helping young players become great.

The New York Yankees have too many old players that in some cases are stuck in their ways and might not want to do things differently. I love my Yankees but the future looks very bleak. You have Derek Jeter on his last legs and A-Rod suing the MLB. What’s next?

The Chicago Cubs are rushing Girardi to make his decision but the skipper will go at his own pace but is very interested in the opportunity even if his hometown lacks many of his family members residing there anymore.
