Aaron Boone began the 2024 MLB season with a clear awareness that his tenure as manager of the New York Yankees was at stake. After the team experienced a promising 94-win season, including a remarkable performance by Aaron Judge and the acquisition of Juan Soto, Boone expressed optimism about the upcoming year. The Yankees exercised Boone's option for the 2025 season, but with Soto's contract negotiations looming, he faces significant competition for the star player's commitment. Boone’s management style has fostered strong relationships with players, and he looks forward to working with the talent he has, specifically hoping Soto will continue wearing pinstripes. Discussions with Soto’s agent are expected to determine if the Yankees can secure his position moving forward.
