Boone led the Yankees to the American League pennant last season but is entering the final year of his contract

Aaron Boone will not have to worry about his future as the New York Yankees’ manager for long. In the final year of his second contract, Yankees fans have repeatedly blamed him for the team’s embarrassing loss in the World Series last season and have called for his job many times through his seven years on the job.

New York Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner admitted that "it's difficult" for MLB team owners to compete with the Los Angeles Dodgers' spending, but also believes his team is better than it was at this time last year.
