Just adding the New York perspective, I feel like Cashman would be more than willing to leave the Yankees for the right position.  His relationship with the Steinbrenner kids has been very tenuous.  Things seemed to peak when the Steinbrenner's forced the huge $$$ signing of setup man Rafael Soriano.   In one of the more bizarre things I've seen, Cashman came out and said it wasn't his idea, and he thought it was a bad move.

Cashman is used to the big budget, but has shown the propensity to hold onto young talent over the last few years, even to the owner's dismay.
