Meanwhile, Rob Raissman, a TV columnist for the NY Daily News, says that the Yankees should’ve fired Torre because of TV ad revenue the Yankees could lose on the YES Network as advertisers head for the Mets success.

This is old news, but it’s too good to be true.
If the Mayor drives his van, then it could be towed away under a plan he championed. Terrific. Congrats Mayor Street!
