If NY loses, will Torre be back? By Peter Gammons Special to ESPN.com
The contracts of Yankees manager Joe Torre and general manager Brian Cashman expire in less than six weeks, and there are rumblings throughout the entire organization that if they don't win another World Series -- much less get out of the American League playoffs -- George Steinbrenner might make drastic changes. Whether he'd actually replace Torre with Buck Showalter, as speculated, remains to be seen. But as one of the only team owners anticipating a major boost in revenues because of his new cable network, Steinbrenner likely will make a major leap into the free-agent market, which features the likes of Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, Moises Alou, Juan Gonzalez, Johnny Damon and John Smoltz.
