According to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, the Yankees will announce the hiring of former Padres GM, Kevin Towers, before the spring. It has long been rumored that Towers would eventually join the Yankees after his departure from San Diego, as he is a friend to that of Yankees GM, Brian Cashman, and joining the organization offers him a chance to fulfill a certain set of occupational goals and desires. In early-December, Towers told the San Diego Union-Tribune that he preferred to work with a “big market club,” one that is not as constrained with regards to spending, and that he wished to see “how you put an American League team together.” He’ll definitely get that chance in New York.
