Ken Davidoff of Newsday does a solid job laying out the muddled mess above Cashman these days. Notably:
2. Hank Steinbrenner.Lends a bit more credence to my thought that the only way Cashman was returning would be if his working relationship with Hal was very strong and that Hal was wresting a larger role from his big (baffoon) brother. Seems to be true, though there are four guys above Cashman and who know who really is calling what shots.
The "advisory-board" comments -- there will be no advisory board, Cashman confirmed Wednesday -- provide further proof that Hank is a highly entertaining fraud. As long as he's got his last name, however, Hank won't be ignored altogether.
Cashman had this to say about speaking as a uniform and united front:
"I'm confident in the fact that we all know we need to speak with the same voice ... I'm not going to be caught off guard as I move forward because I know."

This has actually been my assessment all along. I didn't really think Hank was causing any real trouble. Cashman wasn't "ordered" to trade the kids the way George would have back in the 80s. Hank likes the spotlight and honestly, I DO find him entertaining so every time he talks, I just have to laugh. So long as he's not undermining or handcuffing Cash, then he can say all of the stupid things he wants.
