The New York Yankees were denied a sweep against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday night thanks to a bad pitching performance by Carlos Rodón, and they dropped the series finale. 10-3. Before the game, Aaron Judge was asked about Aaron Boone and if he wants his manager of the past six seasons back in pinstripes in 2024. He was emphatic and said yes and gave a few reasons why. He also voiced his praise for new hitting coach Sean Casey as well. What does this mean for Boone’s future? Does the captain’s word carry any weight? Then it’s Fanmail Friday! Should the Yankees go after Cody Bellinger or stick with Anthony Rizzo? Can the Yankees bring up Estevan Florial? Has Sean Casey made the team improve overall at the plate? Is it possible that the circumstances the Yankees find themselves in right now, i.e., not making the playoffs barring a miracle and just playing out the season with the kids in the lineup, is taking the pressure off Aaron Boone and allowing him to do a better job as manager? If the Yankees keep Oswald Peraza, what will his role be in 2024? And why is Greg Weissert up over Ron Marinanccio?
