Ruppert and Barrow secured Weiss services to develop the farm system, which he did for 15 years, feeding the big league roster with talent like Phil Rizzuto, Joe Gordon and Charlie Keller during Joe McCarthys reign as the field manager.\n\nWeiss took over as GM following the clubs victory in the 1947 World Series and completed numerous deft trades (including several lopsided deals with the Kansas City As, such as the one for Roger Maris), arguably making his best move by hiring Casey Stengel as manager in 1948.

Steinbrenner decided to promote the then-30-year-old, who had started out by working days in the baseball operations department and evenings with the Yankee Stadium security team.\n\nI always thought it would be my first day and the last day on the job, because there was no staying power in the position, said Cashman, who initially asked Steinbrenner for a one-year deal, rather than the three that The Boss had offered.
