Story summary

A poll conducted by The New York Post showed that nearly 85 percent of more than 11,000 respondents want Yankees manager Aaron Boone fired after the team's poor performance in the American League Division Series (ALDS), where they were swept by the Tampa Bay Rays. Despite leading a talented roster since 2018, Boone has not won a championship and only made one World Series appearance in 2024, which ended in a loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. While some fans believe that George Steinbrenner would have fired Boone long ago due to his lack of success with the team's resources, longtime Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has called Boone a “really good manager.” It remains unclear if this poll will influence Cashman’s decision regarding Boone’s future with the team.
