If the Yankees are really dead set on getting under the luxury tax threshold this year will be a painful year for them. They don't really have any young talent that is ready to come up and fill holes so they will have to take fliers on older, injury prone, extremely one dimensional, or non-tendered players (eg Sizemore, Reyonlds, Young, etc). Would Girardi want to stick around to manage a team that might be worse than what they had this year or does he jump ship to his hometown team that has a young core in place? I just don't think he sticks around, but that's just my thinking.
