TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has no concerns about the health of shortstop Derek Jeter, who was limited to 17 games last season due to leg injuries. Jeter is scheduled to play Thursday against Pittsburgh in his first spring training game of his final season. Cashman said Wednesday he is "more curious as to like how the weather report is for tomorrow than what hes going to look like." "What happened last year was unfortunate and unexpected," Cashman said. "Ive been conditioned not to worry about Derek Jeter, and I havent deviated from that." Jeter, who turns 40 in June, broke his left ankle in the 2012 AL championship series, then broke it again last spring during his rehabilitation. "Im looking forward to being out there," Jeter said. "I feel good now, so last year doesnt matter. Since Ive been here this year, everything has been like a normal spring. You cant really compare last year and this year. Two entirely different years. Last year I felt as though I was rehabbing, this year Im good to go." Yankees manager Joe Girardi is handling Jeters spring training in a normal fashion. "Everything hes done has been good," Girardi said. "So, last year where we had some concerns, the way he was running, the way he was moving, we havent had any of that." Jeter got to meet 2013 Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston before the Yankees played Florida State on Tuesday. Winston is a closer and outfielder for the Seminoles. "Hes pretty remarkable," Jeter said. "I think its cool that hes playing two sports. You dont see that too often now."

On Monday night, many fans in this city placed the blame squarely on the captain for his role in the James Neal overtime winner against the Pittsburgh Penguins.Jose Mourinho has the pedigree needed to deliver huge success to Manchester United, according to Jamie Carragher. The former Chelsea manager is widely expected to replace Louis van Gaal in the Old Trafford hot-seat just days after he won the FA Cup, after the Dutchman was sacked on Monday.Once appointed as Van Gaals successor, Mourinho - who has won league titles in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain -will be tasked with bringing back the success and attacking flair synonymous with Sir Alex Fergusons 26-year tenure. And, while admitting the Portuguese may not necessarily be the perfect fit for the job, Sky Sports pundit Carragher is confident Mourinho would win trophies.Jose certainly has the name and the pedigree in terms of trophies and the success hes had - and thats what Manchester United want, he said.Is he the perfect fit in terms of what United would want going back through the years? Probably not in terms of blooding young players and the type of football. Manchester United fans outside Old Trafford today says they support the imminent arrival of former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho But hes managed Real Madrid, and their great attacking players like Cristiano Ronaldo, and won the league there so he is a good fit.dddddddddddd.I think hell bring them huge success because hes done that everywhere hes been.Despite ending a 12-year wait for FA Cup glory - Uniteds first major trophy since Fergusons retirement in 2013 - the last six months of Van Gaals reign have been marred by intense criticism and speculation surrounding his future. Jose Mourinho will bring Manchester United huge success because he’s done that everywhere he’s been. Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher Carragher sympathised with the degree of scrutiny directed at the Dutchman, although he argued it was part and parcel of high-profile managerial roles.Its nice for Louis van Gaal personally to go out with a trophy, he has done that at most of his clubs, but United are obviously looking at bigger and better things, he added.They have to be in the top four and compete in the Champions League so its probably just right. Can Jose Mourinho bring success back to Old Trafford? Every manager who takes a big job is going to be under scrutiny, thats part of the job.Youre going to get people questioning you and hes used to that, hes an experienced manager.You can say you feel sorry for him at times but with him being sacked hell get a decent pay-off, so hell be all right.
