New York Yankees Struggle in the AL East: Is Aaron Boone’s Job on the Line?

There are just under 50 games left to finish the regular season of the Major Leagues, New York Yankees remain last in the AL East and their chances of qualifying for the playoffs are very low.

Understanding that the Bronx team started the season with the second highest payroll in the league and investing in million-dollar contracts like Aaron Judge’sthe third most lucrative contract in the MLB, sports performance did not go hand in hand with the investment made.

This is why the Yankees board will have to make decisions for the next campaign, some head will have to roll and according to a report from the Nj.com the name that sounds the most to bear the responsibility for this bad season It’s Aaron Boone’scurrent manager of the team.

According to the report, the owner would have already decided that Boone will not return in 2024, and although at some point it was speculated that Brian Cashman, the team’s general manager, would also be fired. Report says Cashman’s job isn’t even up for discussion.

Boone has one year left on his contract with the New York franchise and coupled with this poor performance of the season that has left Steinbrenner “deeply frustrated”, it would be more than enough to decide that his link with the team ends at the end of the campaign.

A few weeks ago Steinbrenner commented on Boone’s work on the podcast The Show with Joel Sherman and Jon Heymanand the owner stated that: “I think one of the most important things for me is that he has the respect of the players.. Players want to play and win for him. If I see that go away, then I’ll make a change. And I’ve talked to Aaron about this. The players respect him. I think he is a good leader and a good communicator, ”analyzed the owner.

On the other hand, the same NJ report reported that Boone has not been fired before since Steinbrenner does not like to fire managers in the middle of seasons.
