Apparently, that's the case. We're hiring Kevin Towers, formerly of the legendary San Diego Padres machine, to become Cashman's assistant.
OK, I guess this post does sound a bit caustic, and Cash doesn't deserve it: He won a World Series, and we've got to give him credit. One thing he's showing this winter is guts. Brains? Not sure. Guts, definitely. And there's something to be said for guts.
But it's piss-rotten timing to end the Yankee career of Damon, via the famous Yankee poormouth, while uncovering a stash to maintain the Full-Employment Act of 2010 for Fellow Executives. And that's what this looks like.
When players sign contracts, their pay shouldn't be compared only to others at their position. I think they should be compared to Bud Selig's $16.5 million per year.

So the Yankees are on a budget. Does this mean there will be more $5 games, or that the Yankees will help rebuild some "replacement" parks in the neighborhood? No? Well, uh go Randy Winn!
PS: maybe the Yankees should take over the NYS legislature. The state may not be able to compete with other states but it'll have more money.
