I've actually said my peace on Joe Torre.

I think he is the most overrated manager in the history of baseball.

The Thoroughbred horse he was given to ride by the combination of Buck Schowalter and Stick Micheal was amazing. There aren't many guys who wouldn't be hall of fame bound with that team to coach. Let us not forget the headline of the NY Daily News the day he was hired "Clueless Joe"

I don't think he was disrespected, and I think what he did to the yankees in his biography was horrible.

I think the guys who the franchise disrespected were:
Bernie Williams
Don Mattingly
Buck Schowalter
