10/30: Neil Allen Out
Posted by: Michael
According to the Daily News, bullpen coach Neil Allen was relieved of his position yesterday by Brian Cashman.
It will be interesting to see if the combo of Guidry-Kerrigan will fill the two empty roles in the coaching staff.
Reached at home, GM Brian Cashman confirmed the move and said Allen had been offered a new position within the organization that is not on the major-league level.
Allen's removal means the Yankees now have a bullpen coach vacancy to go along with their opening at pitching coach. Former Yankee Ron Guidry remains the top candidate for that spot, though Joe Kerrigan, whom Cashman hired as a scout earlier this year, is under serious consideration to join the coaching staff in some capacity.
