New York Yankees fans are demanding Aaron Boone is fired as the team’s manager as the season has hit a new low and stands of the brink of catastrophe following the franchise’s sweep at the hands of the Miami Marlins.
The Marlins used the three-game sweep to get an even record, with the Yankees unsuccessfully using an opportunity to put their summer doldrums behind them.
Instead, New York’s plunge from first place in the American League East has further plummeted. The team is clinging to a Wild Card spot with plenty of games to go.
Yet, the stronghold the Yankees held in 2025 has completely evaporated, in part to the team’s 25-32 record since May 29.
Now, Yankees fans are calling for Boone to lose his job again as the lofty expectations in the Bronx are not being met.
The Yankees being swept in their third road series in the last seven definitely hit a sore spot for New Yorkers.

‘If Aaron Boone were fired I think it’s more likely than not they’d start taking every pitch seriously and win the American League. They won’t do it,’ one MLB fan said.
‘I feel bad for Aaron Boone, the person. He’s been a baseball guy and he’s trying to protect these guys. His team has stopped playing for him and that’s painfully obvious,’ a second stated.
‘Waiting for the day where I sign on and see the announcement “The Yankees have relieved Aaron Boone from his management assignment,”‘ a third added.
‘Aaron Boone back, as a red Sox fan he was doing an AMAZING job lol,’ a fourth continued.
‘Lmao the Yankees stink. Idk how Aaron Boone still has a job,’ a fifth concluded.

In a critical series for Wild Card positioning, the Yankees will head to the Lone Star State to face the Texas Rangers in a three-game series starting on Monday.
The Rangers are the first team out of the postseason race, with a series victory over the Yankees bringing them at least within a game of New York, if not overtaking their American League foes.
The Yankees are unlikely to make a managerial move this late in the season, with the Steinbrenner family typically using the offseason to fire coaches.
Yet, the Yankees’ brass cannot be happy with the teams current form.
