The Yankees officially offered their managerial job to Joe Girardi on Monday morning and he is expected to accept it, a source has told 1050 ESPN New York's Andrew Marchand.
'The Yankees have offered Joe the opportunity to become their next manager. Discussions are ongoing.' Steve Mandell, Girardi's agent, said. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told Don Mattingly and Tony Pena that they will not be getting the job.
Girardi was in Denver for the World Series. A source said he is expected to fly to New York for the announcement, which is likely to come Tuesday. Girardi's contract is expected to be in the three-year, $6 million range.
Mattingly will not accept a position on the Yankees coaching staff, Marchand and ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney are reporting.
Girardi, a former Yankees player and coach, was voted NL Manager of the Year in 2006 after keeping Florida in contention until late in the season.
I'm very excited, no more A-Rod and I think Girardi is the best fit for manager now that Torre's gone.

OMG A-Rod is off the team?
Yep... peace out suckaaaaa!
Isn't he just a free agent right now. Nothing is settled yet. Right?
well the yankees said that if he did this then they wouldnt pursue him so him doing this kinda shows that he is looking for another offer...but you're right, he wasnt made another offer and not like he left YET...alot of ppl think he will either go to the cubs or angels
Yeah. FH and his brother got into an discussion (argument) yesterday about A-Rod and the team. It was so funny. First they were saying how A-Rod was going to stay and wasn't and then it got into how he walked Rizutto daughter or whoever up to seats and then adjusted his cup. It was so funny. A-Rod has very mixed views on the Yankee fans and if he should stay or not.
well FH LOOOOOVES a-rod so hes real upset, although i called Fh to tell him about girardi and i mentioned the a-rod thing and he called him a greedy F*ck and said after well guess ill also be a cubs fan next year, i was like wait didnt you just call him a greedy F*ck and hes like yeah but i love arod and hey im greedy so i cant say sh*t lol
lol you have mention how much he love A-rod before...is this something you should be worried about denise?????

Yeah I love him but he didn't do good. Wasn't he like 0 and 25. It was the whole team I think anyway. Not just one guy. I don't know.

Here's my thought. I don't think anyone is leaving (besides Arod). Born a Yankee Die a Yankee. I think they're going to start bringing up from the farm team like they did with Jeter and Posada and build a new World Champ team. That's what I'm hoping for

Hey as long as those players stay Jeter, Posada (the true Yankees) I don't care who they bring in.
