Even though the New York Yankees are celebrating their return to the World Series for the first time since 2009, it’s clear that general manager Brian Cashman believes the 15-year window between Fall Classic appearances contains an MLB history lesson that should not be forgotten.
Appearing on MLB Network’s “High Heat” program, Cashman bristled when host Chris Russo asked him that 15-year gap, taking the opportunity to allude to the cheating scandal surrounding the Houston Astros in 2017 when Houston defeated New York in that season’s American League Championship Series.
“I hate the 15-year thing because it completely forgets and discounts that some other organization cheated us where we were all the way in the end,” Cashman said. “If you knew what was going on, I don’t think they would be advancing … I think we would’ve been advancing.”
The longtime Yankees general manager then drove the point home again.
“I hate that 15-year thing because I don’t think it accurately reflects history,” he said.
