Um, ok, maybe it wasn't Jim Caple, but consarn it, I know I saw those numbers somewhere.

NEW YORK -- The New York Yankees hired former Chicago Bulls general manager Jerry Krause in a scouting role on Monday.

Krause, the Bulls' GM between 1985 and 2002, added the pieces around Michael Jordan to form a championship puzzle that won six NBA championships. Krause, 64, retired late last season, citing health problems.

A two-time NBA executive of the year, Krause was a baseball scout for four teams over 16 years before coming to the Bulls. His keen eye for talent was the primary reason why George Steinbrenner himself decided to hire him, The New York Daily News reported.
