The knee-jerk comparison for Luis Rojas to a Yankees manager would be Aaron Boone, since both come from baseball royalty.
Boone’s grandfather Ray, father Bob and brother Bret all played in the majors — and Bob Boone also managed. Luis Rojas’ father, Felipe Alou, brother Moises and uncles Jesus and Matty all played in the majors — and Felipe managed.
But Boone is not the Yankee manager whose résumé reads like that of Rojas. When Buck Showalter was hired to his first major league managing job in 1992, he was 35. He played exclusively in the minors.
