HBT: Yankees hire former Cubs GM Hendry
When he was let go from the Cubs? GM gig late last season, I thought ?well, we won?t have Jim Hendry to kick around anymore.? ?Guess I was wrong, because ESPN Chicago reports that the Yankees have hired Hendry as an assistant to Brian Cashman.
In all honesty, we really don?t have him to kick around. Quick: name the last time an assistant GM made news for any reason? ?At least one that wasn?t some 35-year-old GM-in-waiting. ?Yeah, it?s not exactly a high-profile job, even with the Yankees.
But it?s good news. Hendry may not have made as many good decisions as the Cubs? GM as bad ones, but like I?ve said a lot of times, you don?t get to be a GM of a major league baseball team unless you?ve excelled on the way to that job in the first place, so the man certainly has something to offer the Yankees. ?Plus: he?s a damn nice guy.
