The 51-year-old Aaron Boone will return to the dugout at the beginning of the 2025 season, despite the New York Yankees’ devastating World Series loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

To put it kindly, the Yankees wouldn’t want to remember their first World Series since 2009. The sole bright point was their 11–4 victory in Game 4, which kept their waning hopes alive before being quickly crushed a day later.

Even though the Yankees led 5-0 after three innings in a crucial Game 5 matchup, they fell apart in a spectacular way as Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts swiftly pushed the Dodgers back into the game, which they won 7–6.

The fates of certain of the New York team members, like Anthony Rizzo and Juan Soto, who are heading to free agency, are now in doubt, but Boone will remain in the Bronx.

According to Andy Martino, Boone is anticipated to return as manager in 2025. “Several people who have firsthand knowledge of the team’s mindset claim that, despite the outcome of the World Series.

Even if the Yankees had been swept, it would still have been the case. Boone has an option with the Yankees for the upcoming campaign.

It would make sense to extend the deal after the pennant-winning season in order to prevent a lame duck year.
Boone has been leading the Yankees since 2018, and it has been a challenging time for the team. They have won the AL East three times, but they also placed third and fourth in 2021 and 2023.

However, the 2024 World Series was their first time playing in the season’s last games since 2009, indicating that the squad led by Boone may not be far from taking the desired final step to glory.

They have also advanced to the American League Championship Series three times, losing to the Houston Astros in 2019 and 2022 but clearly winning in 2024. Furthermore, Boone has a 58.4% managing record with 603 victories from 1032 games coached.
