Steinbrenner Slipping
The latest issue of Portfolio is out, and has the usual profiles of business executives, including a piece checking in on the Yankees owner. He is apparently in worse shape than the average quant hedge fund....
McEwen asks about his health.
Steinbrenner sighs heavily and mutters, “Oh, I’m all right.”
He doesn’t look all right. In fact, he looks dreadful. His body is bloated; his jawline has slackened into a triple chin; his skin looks as if a dry-cleaner bag has been stretched over it. Steinbrenner’s face, pale and swollen, has a curiously undefined look. His features seem frozen in a permanent rictus of careworn disbelief. Portfolio.com
Meanwhile, the Yankees are back in the hunt, four games back of the Red Sox, with plenty of head-to-head meetings left.
Game on, Beantown.
By the way, how was John Henry’s performance in July and August?
