“As far as Boone’s concerned, we just signed him and for all the same reasons I listed a year ago, I believe he is a very good manager,” Steinbrenner advised an Associated Press reporter Wednesday outdoors the Yankees’ participant improvement advanced in Tampa. “I don’t see a change there.”
Boone simply accomplished the primary season of his new three-year contract extension signed final October. He has led the Yanks to the postseason each single season he’s been on the helm and general owns a 427-281 win-loss report. However, followers have relentlessly referred to as for change after the Bombers did not win the American League pennant for the thirteenth straight season.
Steinbrenner didn’t attribute the Yankees failed postseason to his supervisor, as a substitute he tipped his cap to the group that swept them.

“But you’ve got to give it to the Astros,” Steinbrenner added. “They’re a very good team top to bottom. We just didn’t bring our ‘A’ game.”
The Yanks reached the ALCS for the third time in six years and misplaced to the Astros in all three of them. This time round, Houston swept the Bombers as Boone’s membership appeared overmatched from the beginning.
Steinbrenner’s tone concerning Boone is just like when the Bombers’ season ended a 12 months in the past and he gave the skipper his vote of confidence and a model new contract.
“We have a person and manager in Aaron Boone who possesses the baseball acumen and widespread respect in our clubhouse to continue to guide us forward,” Steinbrenner mentioned within the press launch saying Boone’s extension. “As a team and as an organization, we must grow, evolve and improve. We need to get better. Period. I know Aaron fully embraces our expectations of success, and I look forward to drawing on his intelligence, instincts and leadership in pursuit of our next World Series championship.”
