Trifecta.

"When you think of Joe Torre, you think of a guy who has already scripted perhaps the greatest second act in baseball history."

When I think of Joe Torre, I think of the power of anti-oxidants in Bigelow Green Tea.

"Now, it appears, he's looking for Act III."

Or, as we say in America, "Act 3."

"Should his group succeed in the purchase, the 71-year old Torre would have completed an incredible Baseball Trifecta, going player to manager to owner. That doesn't even get into other hats Torre has worn in baseball, including broadcaster and MLB executive."

Joe Torre was a broadcaster? I wonder if he ever brought up Bob Gibson.

You forgot author!

Pitchman!

"When he left the Yankees following the 2007 season it was due to what Torre perceived as a lack of respect from the late George Steinbrenner, who offered him an incentive-laden contract with base salary below what he had been earning. While it clearly did not sit well with Torre, he thanked Steinbrenner for his time in pinstripes and was quickly hired to manage the Dodgers."

Well, that's not quite right. Torre trashed Steinbrenner and many other Yankees in a book you seem to have conveniently forgot.

But that doesn't even matter.

Good for him. He'll be a fine owner, I'm sure, as long as he lets someone else manage the bullpen.
