Brian Cashman on Bernie Williams.

Cashman being brutally honest: The Yankees hold a 2006 option on Williams for $15 million, but GM Brian Cashman said yesterday "it's unrealistic that that would be exercised."

Cashman being brutally dishonest: "Right now, we don't anticipate reducing his role anyway, so that's hard for me to speak to."


One of Cashman's jobs is to spin and he has no particular obligation to talk to the press. But I just find it very curious that, with all the attention being paid to Beltran & Bernie, everybody seem to ignore the 500-pound elephant follow-up question.

Bernie is going to play a major role on this team? Okay.

Ummm, where?
