David Samson was never successful running a baseball team. He and Jeffrey Loria were Marlins owners and really didn't amount to anything when they were in charge. Samson's a loudmouth, egomaniac and kind of annoying. He's also good for a soundbite. By the way... he's still a prick.
Today he spoke on Dan Le Batard's show and spoke of Brian Cashman and said he's done.
Now look, if I have both Cashman in a room with Samson and I was asked to pick who I want on my team as the GM? It's Cashman, merely for the fact that David Samson is a squirmy turd, but there's no question Cashman stepped out of turn with his recent remarks against Stanton. But will he apologize? No. Hell, Cash didn't even apologize for the crappy season of misfits he assembled."He's done. (Yankees GM Brian Cashman) is done. You don't survive that...this is the beginning of the end." – @DavidPSamson says Cashman's recent critical comments of Giancarlo Stanton will eventually get him fired this year if the Yankees don't perform well.

This Samson story, while powerful on its surface, is really just a pile of garbage. The bottom line is Hal Steinbrenner will never fire Brian Cashman. He won't if the season is terrible, and he won't after the season ends. Hal doesn't fire guys mid-season and Hal and Cashman have a "thing", meaning, as bad as Cashman has been, there's a loyalty. Samson? He wouldn't understand that if his life depended on it. This is a guy that has no loyalty.
I just wanted to offer my 2 cents about this piece of garbage, Samson. As the end of the day Cashman is safe... he won't be fired. But when the day comes... it's always possible Hal just won't renew his contract... and that's a whole other thing.
