February 20 – New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone signed a two-year contract extension that will run through the 2027 season, the team announced Thursday.
Financial terms were not disclosed by the team for Boone, who is entering his eighth year as manager of the Yankees.
The Yankees exercised the 2025 club option on his contract on Nov. 8.
Boone, 51, is 603-429 since taking over in 2018 and has reached the playoffs six times in seven seasons. In 2024, New York captured its first American League pennant since 2009 and lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games in the World Series.
Boone is the third Yankees manager to make the playoffs in six of his first seven seasons with the club, joining Casey Stengel (also six of first seven) and Joe Torre (each of first 12).
New York had the best record in the American League last season at 94-68 and won the AL East for the third time in Boone’s tenure (2019 and 2022).
Boone was named the 33rd manager in Yankees history on Dec. 4, 2017.
