The Bronx Stop: A Yankees Blog

Joe Girardi will be officially introduced as the new Yankee's manager with a coronation set for Thursday. Girardi made a strong vote of confidence for the new team he is set to inherit saying:

"I understand the expectations, and I think that's the advantage of being a player in New York," Girardi said. "You understand what's expected. I expect it as well. I expect to be playing in the Fall Classic next October -- I think that's everyone's expectation. You do everything that you possibly can to get there."
