Yankees Fire Boone’s Two Aides, More Coach Exits In The Pipeline

Yankees Overhaul Coaching Staff

The New York Yankees have started a major shakeup of Aaron Boone's coaching staff following another frustrating postseason exit.

Two of Boone's longest-serving assistants, Mike Harkey and Travis Chapman, will not return as bullpen coach and first base coach, respectively.

Additionally, hitting coach James Rowson and third base coach Luis Rojas are exploring managerial jobs elsewhere, signaling potential further changes to the staff.

The overhaul marks the most sweeping set of changes since Boone took over as Yankees manager in 2018.

Aaron Boone is expected to return for his ninth season, but the core of his coaching group will be dramatically altered.
