Aaron Boone’s Yankees hope springs eternal but summer’s here: Sherman
NY Post
Aaron Boone promised the best is yet to come with the 2021 Yankees in April, then he did it in May and you really do have to like the manager’s consistency. We are in June and his team’s inconsistent play has yet to knock the optimism out of him.
The season is still young enough that Boone can vow better days ahead. If the schedule were a cross-country trip from New York, it would be roughly in St. Louis. Heck, the Yanks are playing the Red Sox for the first time this year this weekend. Yet the season is old enough that the Yankees’ pathologies are overt. So, unless they are about to get a lot more athletic, a lot higher in baseball IQ and a lot better hitting overall, especially from the left side, then Boone will be saying something like, “We are not where we need to be or where I think we will get” all the way through September and an early winter.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp.
