‘Unwilling’ Gleyber Torres claps back at Brian Cashman as Yankees bad blood simmers
NY Post
Now with the Tigers, Gleyber Torres avoided taking too big of a bite into Yankees general manager Brian Cashman’s comments Thursday that he had been “unwilling” to shift to third base last season.
“Still ? 😴😂 just turn 🗒️,” Torres tweeted Thursday night.
To understand this semi-beef requires a trip back to July when the Yankees acquired a second baseman, Jazz Chisholm Jr., when they already had a second baseman on the roster in Torres.
Obviously, one of the two would have to shift their positions and Torres made it clear that he expected he would be the one to stay put.
“Yeah, I’m a second baseman. I play second,” Torres said at the time.
Torres added that he would be “ready for anything” and Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he believed the infielder would “be open” to a possible move, but Cashman had a different take Thursday.
