Don’t expect the Steinbrenner family to sell the Yankees. Not soon — and not ever.

That’s according to Jennifer Steinbrenner Swindal, one of the general partners of the Yankees.

“We’re all in,” Swindal said. “I hope we own the team for eternity. You never know what life will bring, but we’re in it for the long haul.”

Swindal, who is George Steinbrenner’s daughter and Hal’s sister, helps run the organization’s charitable works and was with several players on Wednesday at St. Malachy’s Church in Midtown, as they served meals to the elderly as part of the team’s Winter Warm-up.

Swindal pointed to the fact that her family has gotten even more involved with the team in recent years as proof they are committed to holding onto the team.

“My son is working in baseball ops, so we’re already involved with the next generation,” Swindal said of Steve Swindal Jr., coordinator of baseball operations. “Initially, we were trying to figure out how we were all going to handle things and when my father got sick, all four of us [siblings] went to work. Hal has been a leader and he’s been great.”

Much has been made of how the recent collective bargaining agreements have made it more punitive for the Yankees to spend money, but on Tuesday, general manager Brian Cashman made it clear that expiring contracts like those of Alex Rodriguez, CC Sabathia and Mark Teixeira will allow them to be “big-game hunters” in the near future.

“This is my hope: First and foremost, as you see we’re transitioning from contracts that we vested heavily in and it did pay off for us in ’09,” Cashman said Tuesday of the Yankees last World Series title. “So at the end of the day, we are going to be in a position to do a number of things and maybe we can turn the clock back to be big-game hunters that we have been accustomed to being.”
