George Steinbrenner sank his teeth into Joe Torre on Tuesday, criticizing the manager's maneuvers in the Yankees' loss to the White Sox. Now it seems he has no intention of letting go. Steinbrenner made it obvious yesterday that Torre still is very much in his crosshairs. On arriving at the Stadium for last night's game against Texas, he was asked about the possibility of acquiring another pitcher. He quickly turned the topic to Torre and his high-priced contract. "How many pitchers can I keep getting?" Steinbrenner said as he walked into the ballpark. "I'm paying my manager $6 million a year to handle it. "He'll handle it."
