10/17: Yanks to speak with Mazzone
Posted by: Michael
The Yankees got permission today to speak with Atlanta Braves pitching coach, Leo Mazzone.
Mazzone has one year left on his contract with the Braves. He is the clear front runner to take over for Mel Stottlemyre who said last week that he is done with the Yanks.
Mazzone has been on the the Braves staff since '90 helping them to 14 division titles.
What a h-u-g-e gain for the Yankees if they can pry him away from the Braves. Mazzone would definitely improve the Yanks rotation - and help in years to come to help rebuild the staff.
