New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge lauds skipper Aaron Boone for his efforts to put the team together.
The New York Yankees appointed former Astros baseman Aaron Boone as the team’s manager in 2018. Boone took over from Joe Girardi and was an instant hit right in the first season. The Bombers recorded 100 wins in 2018 under Boone’s mentorship. The Yanks later extended his contract for three more years in 2021 with an option for 2025.
However, the one thing that Aaron Boone has failed to achieve in all these glorious five years is a World Series Title. All his efforts often get washed down the drain as the team fails to get past Houston Astros every single year. Moreover, Boone has always been the subject of incessant trolling by the likes of the ruthless New York fan base. However, Yanks slugger and captain Aaron Judge have a different perspective to share.

The fans and critics stand highly impressed with the 21-year-old and demand his inclusion in the Yanks roster this season. Volpe is currently on a minor league contract with the club.
