10/18: Torre Turns Down Pay Cut
Torre has
turned down a
pay cut of $2.5 million guaranteed dollars in the form of a 1 year, $5 million dollar deal. If we made the World Series, he could have made more than this year with $3 million in potential incentives (for making each round of the playoffs) and a vested option for 2009 if we reached the World Series. Both Cashman and Levine say it's time to move on.

Time to move on - no more Joe to kick around anymore.
