At the beginning of December 2017, the New York Yankees officially replaced Joe Girardi with Aaron Boone. He signed a three-year contract with the Yankees for $1.15 million a year with a team option for 2021. That amount is high for a rookie manager but low compared to many in the MLB, including the Los Angeles Angels’ Mike Scioscia, who earns $6MM a year for a team that has won one World Championships in 60 years. Scioscia last brought the Angels to the World Series 18 years ago.
Many Yankee fans were sorry to see Joe Girardi go, and just as dissatisfied with the Yankee’s pick of Aaron ‘who” Boone.
