Assistant GM Billy Eppler Still In The Fold

The assistant general manager to Brian Cashman was recruited hot and heavy by the San Diego Padres for their vacant GM job but Billy Eppler is still in the fold for the Yankees and the Padres instead hired Texas Rangers assistant GM A.J. Preller.

Eppler will be in the fold for the Yankees this offseason unless something goes awry from now until then as Cashman is a free agent after this season. If New York, or Cashman for that matter, decides that the two sides need to be broken up. Eppler may be the next GM of the New York Yankees, stay tuned.
