"The 52-year-old has now completed eight seasons as the Yankees' manager, has no World Series titles, and just one American League pennant to show for it. New York's championship drought is now at 16 years after their elimination at the hands of an AL East division rival, which is the second-longest such snide in the franchise's 123-year history. Boone has had the benefit of working under the second generation of Steinbrenners, led by son Hal, rather than father George,"
"During spring training this season, Boone inked a two-year extension that would keep him in the Yankees' dugout through the 2027 season the agreement coming after the club won its first AL pennant since 2009 before getting trounced in five games by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the Fall Classic. Despite losing Juan Soto to the crosstown Mets during the winter, Boone and Cashman implored that their Plan B' featuring Paul Goldschmidt and Cody Bellinger was enough to resume a World Series push in 2025."
Aaron Boone completed his eighth season as New York Yankees manager and remains under contract following a season-ending ALDS loss. Boone has no World Series titles and one American League pennant, and the Yankees' championship drought stands at 16 years, the franchise's second-longest. Boone benefited from Hal Steinbrenner's more patient ownership compared with George Steinbrenner. Boone signed a two-year extension through 2027 after the club reached the World Series in 2022. The team lost Juan Soto in free agency, pursued a Plan B with Paul Goldschmidt and Cody Bellinger, and faced fan unrest and questions about front-office decisions.
