Brian Cashman

[TNCatfanforever]

am I the only one who didn’t know he was a Kentucky guy?

 

[SpamburgerHamburger]

I didn't. Saw them in the seats when the game started and figured they were just there because it's in New York. Chris Carter is there also, isn't he a big Cal guy?

Wide receiver or X-Files?

 

[Bluegrass79]

Wide receiver or X-Files?

wide reciever

 

[SemperFiCat]

I had no idea either. I see a pinstripe alternate uni in our future.

 

[Bluegrass79]

Yeah Cashman lived here in Lexington growing up I think.

 

[SaguaroCat]

Moved here in high school at Lexington Catholic.

 

[Smashcat]

Glad to have him in the big blue canoe.

 

[bluebayou01]

This is like heaven for me. I’m a huge Yankees fan and of course I love my Cats! I’ve known for the last decade about Cashman. Surprised so many didn’t. Can Judge and Stanton play hoops? Lol!

 

[MychalG]

I did not know that about Cashman either. Man, what a deal they made today. As a Reds fan I am glad the deal with the Cardinals did not go through, I did not want to see Stanton abuse their pitching staff 18 x a year.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

He's rocked Kentucky gear quite a few times when giving Yankee press conferences.

 

[ThroughBlue]

That’s Awesome

 

[DrH. Lecter]

Yea that was awesome. I had no idea either.

I wish Cincinnati would have hired Boone .

I always wonder how many brother combos played different pro sports. Chris in the NFL and Butch in the NBA.

 

[Ripcord65]

Add me to the list of people who had no idea.

When he was a boy in Lexington, Ky., Brian Cashman never had visions of becoming the Yankees’ general manager. He was not from the Bronx. He was being raised in bluegrass country, where basketball is king and children daydream of playing for the University of Kentucky.

[Simple_Man]

I also had no idea about Cashman,but that is sweet!

 

[Graced 1]

Yeah,that was very cool today

 

[TheFolker]

Maybe he would like a retirement hobby as our athletic director one day.

 

[UNIVKY]

Had no idea.....As a Cardinals fan, I may even pull for the Yankees some....................hmmm, no

But kudos to Cashman

Cashman grew up in Lexington. He’s always been a big UK fan. Has a bunch of really cool UK memorabilia in his office. Always at the FF when we are there.

Ditto

I just had no idea. Thanks for this.

 

[Mojocat]

Well, this is curious. It looks like some posters already knew this about Cashman, and some posters did not.

 

[TrustinCal]

Did not know this. Think I might root for the Yankees because of this.

 

[ekywildcat]

Very interesting. My mind always wonder when watching games at Rupp, cameras panning the crowd in the bottom rows behind the bench, who are these people and how much money do they have to get to sit there?

 

[Indyadolph]

Wide receiver or X-Files?

I was thinking the EXACT same thing!!!

 

[deshomatic]

His brother Rob was the head pro at Tates Creek GC when I was living in Lex over a decade ago. I heard their parents owned the Red Mile at one time, not sure about that though.

Include me as one who’s bummed that Stanton didn’t want to play for the Cardinals - the greatest fans in all of MLB.

But yeah, that was pretty cool to learn that Cashman is a UK fan.

 

[TeoJ]

Boone seemed to be pretty impressed also.

 

[LawCat1989]

Cashman's brother still lives in the area. He's the Superintendent at Canewood Golf Course in Georgetown.

 

[Chuckinden]

Well I knew he was UK fan because he called me while I was eating Thanksgiving dinner and told me.

 

[Supafuzz75]

Not one clue whom he is..

 

[jpbky2]

HIs brother Rob is here in town and his Father ran a horse farm here in town. It was through horse racing that Mr. Cashman and George Steinbrenner had a relationship.

 

[Saven]

I wish Cincinnati would have hired Boone .

Anybody but Price at this point. He's legit garbage.

And yes, yes I know, the Reds are legit garbage too. But he is baaaaaaad.
