Friday: Joel Sherman says Girardi will have another offer from the Yankees no later than today. He suspects it will be in the three-year, $13-16M range. Sherman hears that if push comes to shove, the team is prepared to walk away if Girardi’s camp seeks $7M annually, or what Joe Torre was making at the end of his tenure in pinstripes.

Wednesday: Via Jon Heyman: During their scheduled meeting this afternoon, the Yankees made Joe Girardi a contract offer to return to the team. He responded with parameters for a deal and the two sides agreed to meet again on Thursday. No word on the size of the offer or what Girardi’s camp proposed, and chances are we’ll never know. That they’re meeting again tomorrow is a good sign. Hopefully they get this taken care of quickly.
