Wednesday was Day 3 of the New York Yankees managerial search in Tampa, and it was Tony Pena’s turn.


“I’m capable to manage this ballclub,” Pena said on a conference call from Tampa. “I’m capable to take this ballclub to the final line, which is to win the World Series. I feel we have great talent in this organization.” “With the talent that we have, I think we can do it this year,” Pena said. “There’s no question in my mind that we have the capability and we have the talent to go and do the job.”



Pena, 50, completed his second season as the Yankees’ first-base coach this year after spending parts of four seasons as the Kansas City Royals’ manager from 2002 into 2005.



Pena’s interview followed Girardi and Mattingly…andit looks as if they are the 3 finalists. The Yankees may announce their decision on Friday.
