Aaron Boone defends Yankees players after the harsh criticism of legends

NEWYou can now listen to PK Press Club articles!

Aaron Boone’s New York Yankees recently made criticism, including certain team legends.

Derek Jet and Alex Rodriguez played on Saturday in their roles of Fox sports commentators when they established their former team, the latter asking: “Where is the responsibility?” They referred to the recent mental errors of the team, which included an error in Baserunning Jazz Chisholm Jr. on Saturday.

Boone, however, came to the defense of his players on Sunday morning while the Yankees were trying to save a match against the Miami Marlins, a team they had to manage this weekend on the road.

“Listen, we are the Yankees, and when we lose games, if it’s in and around an error, this criticism is far away,” said Boone, via the New York Post. “It’s a fair game, I guess.

“I do not agree with the factor of responsibility. But the reality is that we are concentrated every day on being the best possible. This is how we have to do it. But I understand when it does not happen, or we do not have the file that I think we should have, or certainly people think that we should have, it comes with the territory. It is on us to change this thought.”

Boone added that as regards responsibility, more things are underway and done behind the scenes rather than on the camera during the pressors.

Throw said that during the Fox sports team panel at the MLB Speedway Classic in Bristol, Tennessee, that he does not believe that this Yankees team is designed for a return of the World Series after arriving in 2024.

“They make too many mistakes … You can’t get it with this number of errors against the big teams,” he said.

Rodriguez added: “If one of us made a mistake, we would sit our buttocks just on the bench.”

The Yankees had a whole match on Friday evening, blowing three different tracks-6-0, 9-4 and 12-10 at the end of the ninth round-to lose against the Marlins, 13-12. Nor was it a great omen for the Yankees fans, who were excited after seeing the reinforcements of the enclosure of the readers added before the deadline for the MLB trade.

Jake Bird, David Bednar and Camilo Doval, all new parts for Yankees to deploy, combined for nine races provided. Also at the ninth round, Jose Caballero, who came in an exchange with the Rays of Tampa Bay, launched a ball on the ground towards the right field which equaled the game and allowed the Marlins of Xavier Edwards to go to the third base for a potential walk, which occurred on the next ball.

Then, Saturday evening, Chisholm was doubled on a pop-up because it was not careful.

“I see mistakes after the error, and there is no consequence,” said Rodriguez.

The Yankees (60-51) are now third in the Al East after the Boston Red Sox (62-51) have increased the ranking by winning eight of its last 10 games. They are 3.5 games back from the Blue Jays de Toronto, leader in the division (65-47).

New York still has a joker place from Sunday, although teams like the Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, which they will then see on the calendar, and the Cleveland guards all fight for the three slots.

“You cannot continue to do so,” said throwing errors about. “You have to clean it. I mean, it’s as simple as that, there are no excuses … You have to play better. If you don’t play better, you are not going to go very far.”
