Yankees’ Aaron Boone ripped by fans over bold claim after 7-1 loss to Astros

The New York Yankees lost 7-1 to the Houston Astros on Sunday to drop the three-game series. Since adding profusely at the MLB trade deadline, they are 2-7 and hanging on by a thread in the AL Wild Card race. After Sunday’s loss, which featured a poor Max Fried start and no Bombers hits through five innings, the manager caught some heat online. Yankees fans were not pleased with Aaron Boone’s sentiment after the loss.

Aaron Boone “wholeheartedly” believes the Yankees will turn their season around

“When it does, then you start to really build that next layer of confidence.”

“You know, obviously, we’re feeling it and we know we have to be better,” Boone said at his press conference. “We know we have a much higher standard for ourselves and expectations, but at the same time, we’re in control of this. I wholeheartedly believe that we are going to get rolling and turn this thing around. And when it does, you really start to build that next level of confidence where guys are kinda feeding off each other. But, you know, it’s all just talk right now. But that’s how I feel about it. We’ve gotta go do it.”

@YankeesMIKE2408 says what many fans have been thinking in recent weeks. “All 29 other teams would have fired Boone years ago. It’s really shocking this man still has his job.” Boone did survive missing the playoffs in 2023 and losing to the Red Sox in 2021.

@whiteneck81 has an idea for Lorne Michaels. “I swear [Saturday Night Live] needs to do a skit of this clown.”

@YankeesSzn99 is getting deja vu, “YOU’VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS MAN.”

@zuckthebook is sick of the Yankees of recent years as well, “Lifelong Yankee fan here. Can honestly say, I don’t give a F anymore. Sad to say. But, this team has nothing going for it. No fire, no drive to win. Bottom line, its HR or bust, no ability to get timely hits or move baserunners. Very sad for such a talented group.”

Boone was thrown out of Sunday’s game, looking to give his team a spark. He was not, ending his weekend early and sending his team home with another loss. The Yankees open a three-game series with the Minnesota Twins on Monday.
