  • Who is Michael Fishman, and why did the Yankees hire him?

    Consulting kick

    For someone in the last year of his contract, Cashman sure has been on a hiring kick lately, having added not one but two consultants within the last couple of weeks. In addition to former Red Sox manager and pitching coach Joe Kerrigan, he hired Michael Fishman, who used to be an actuary for an insurance company in Manhattan.

    Whereas Kerrigan's specialty will be in scouting, Fishman's will be more in statistical analysis. Fishman also worked with Wall Street Journal sports columnist Sam Walker on a book project. "He's part of my R&D team," Cashman said.

    If you don't tell me what I want to know then it'll just be a question of how much you want it to hurt
    The only reason that you're conscious right now is I don't want to carry you
    I have killed two people since midnight. I haven't slept in over 24 hours. So maybe you should be a little more afraid of me than you are now
