04/10: Cashman Had to Persist to Get OK to Pursue Teixeira
Newsday's Kat O'Brien profiles Brian Cashman's pursuit of Mark Teixeira.
Teixeira never was really an option," Cashman said. "It was something I kept pushing, but it was not really being accepted by above me . . . I guess persistence paid off. I knocked on that door, I guess, just enough that someone finally answered. Hal really gave me the OK to pursue it over a few-day period. And at that point, I still thought the Red Sox were getting him."
