Steinbrenner predicts Reggie Jackson will stay with Yankees
New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner said the team cannot win without Reggie Jackson and expressed optimism that Jackson and manager Billy Martin will resolve their differences. He denied guaranteeing a trade and noted Jackson must decide his own destiny, while confirming a two year extension of the agreement with the Columbus Clippers. Bobby Murcer’s return was not tied to any trade plan and Clippers GM George Sisler welcomed two more years of partnership.
