Which is just a polite way of saying a**hole.
At the risk of stirring up Kohm (whose opinions I value on everything non-Yankee related), this idea of retiring the position of Team Captain of the Yankees is just so much nonsense, and another example of the recency bias which pervades society in general and sports in particular. Will the Yankees never, ever have need of another Captain? Does Cashman have that kind of pipeline to the future?
While we're at it, let's go ahead and give Mike Trout the Triple Crown, the MVP, and put him in the Hall of Fame. I can feel it.
