Heyman On Yankees, Red Sox, Twins, D’Backs

In the aftermath of Bob Geren’s dismissal, Jon Heyman of SI.com lists a handful of managers with suspect job security. Though 2011 probably won’t be a big year for managerial firings, Jim Riggleman of the Nationals and Edwin Rodriguez of the Marlins are on Heyman’s list. Here are the rest of his rumors:

• Geren had "lost" the Athletics' clubhouse, according to people with Oakland ties.
• Yankees GM Brian Cashman doesn’t expect elite starting pitching to be available this summer. "I just don't see a No. 1 pitcher you can pinpoint,'' Cashman said. 
• The Yankees will look for starting pitching and left-handed relief. 
• The Red Sox will also be looking to add a southpaw to their ‘pen.
• Boston people expect top prospect Jose Iglesias to prove himself as the shortstop of the future and people don’t expect the Red Sox to “make a play” for Jose Reyes.
• Competing executives say the Twins will “do what’s right” for the organization this summer, even if that means trading Major Leaguers for prospects. Watch out for the last-place Twins, who have won seven of eight.
• Executives say the D’Backs, Padres, Pirates, Rays and Red Sox had strong drafts.
