The New York Yankees on Friday re-signed Brian Cashman to a three-year contract to serve as senior vice president and general manager.
Cashman, 47, has served in his current role since Feb. 3, 1998. In all, his clubs have earned a postseason berth in 14 of his 17 seasons as general manager and claimed 12 Division titles, six American League championships and four World Series titles.
Cashman has the third-longest tenure among current general managers in baseball behind San Francisco’s Brian Sabean and Oakland’s Billy Beane.
