According to ESPN Chicago’s Bruce Levine, former Cubs GM Jim Hendry has been hired by the Yankees.
Hendry will function as a special assistant to Yankees general manager Brian Cashman as part of a multi-year agreement. He was let go by Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts in August after two straight fifth-place finishes.

Yankees signed GM Brian Cashman to a three-year contract extension.
The deal was agreed upon a couple of days ago, but the official announcement was delayed until after CC Sabathia’s situation was settled. Cashman has helped the Yankees to three straight playoff appearances and a 2011 American League East title. He’s happy in the role, and the Bombers’ higher-ups are pleased with the regular season success.
