from the New York Post:
The Yankees will have a clearer idea of who their third base coach will be later this week. That’s when Larry Bowa will meet with Dodgers brass to discuss his future. Bowa, who is the Yankees’ No. 1 choice to replace Bobby Meacham, recently finished the first of a two-year deal to coach third for the Dodgers. Nevertheless, Bowa has an out in the contract. Bowa, the best third base coach in baseball, was with the Yankees in 2006 and 2007 but not retained when manager Joe Torre didn’t return for the 2008 season. Instead, Bowa joined Torre in Los Angeles. If Bowa decides to stay with the Dodgers, the Yankees might turn to Mike Gallego or Dale Sveum.
I want Bowa back. Hopefully he wants to return as well, but we won’t know anything until he is done meeting with the Dodgers. I really liked Bowa’s enthusiasm and fire. He really lit a fire under Cano and got him going. I think it would show a big difference on the team. If it comes down to Gallego or Sveum, than I would go with Sveum.
