And Girardi said A-Rod must focus on 'doing his job'...

Again, I think this is posturing & setting up a potential "cut"....

I don't see anything wrong with Cashman's "position".
He was right on spot and said the "right things"..I also think he offered more info than he NEEDED TO!

READ from the article:

"In fairness to us and in fairness to Alex, I don't know what to expect because it’s been a year," Cashman said Tuesday in Phoenix. "I just don’t know. You hope that he can contribute in a significant way, but we’ll have to wait and see how that plays out. In the meantime, I have to look for whatever ways to improve the club and discuss those with ownership, what manifests itself as being available and acquirable, we’ll see."

“If I signed or traded for a third baseman, then that would be my third baseman," Cashman said. “If I signed a Chase Headley, he would be the starting third baseman. If I traded for a third baseman that was an everyday guy, that would be the move I would be making. If I did that. But I'm not here to state that the Yankees have their definitive third baseman for 2015. I have not done anything like that."

I agree, but I think it's setting things up...
