Tuesday was at least a mildly eventful day for the Yankees, as they announced the appointment of Brian Sabean as an executive advisor to vice president and general manager Brian Cashman. The former San Francisco Giants GM said he is “all in,” ready to do whatever it takes to help New York win its first World Series title since 2009.
The addition of Sabean to the front office represents excellent news for the Yankees as an organization. He may be considered “old school,” especially after being out of a front office leadership role since 2018 and starting his involvement with MLB teams in 1985, but remains a top-notch talent evaluator who brings in a lot of (winning) experience.
