Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner seems pretty confident about his team’s chances this year, even after losing star outfielder Juan Soto to the Mets. Manager Aaron Boone, while acknowledging the loss of Soto, is also optimistic about the Yankees’ chances.
The Yankees made some big moves to fill the void left by Soto, bringing in players like Cody Bellinger, Paul Goldschmidt, Max Fried, and Devin Williams. These are some serious additions, and they should help the Yankees stay competitive.
Boone emphasized that there are many ways to build a winning team, and he believes the Yankees have done just that. They’ve got a strong core of players, including reigning AL MVP Aaron Judge, and they’ve added some key pieces to complement them.
The Yankees are the betting favorites to win the American League pennant, and Boone’s contract extension seems likely. It’s clear that the Yankees are all-in on winning another World Series, and they believe they have the team to do it.
