The New York Yankees had a disappointing 2023 campaign that saw them miss out on the postseason for the first time since 2016. This didn’t sit well with owner Hal Steinbrenner, who plans to make “some changes” in order to position the Yankees for a better run next season.
“We’re going to be making some changes. Some may be more subtle than others, but I think we’ve uncovered certainly things we can do better,” Steinbrenner told reporters on Wednesday.
According to Steinbrenner, he still isn’t sure what those changes might include.
“Anything’s possible. There’s a lot more discussions to be had,” he added.
It would be surprising to see the Yankees move on from general manager Brian Cashman as part of those changes. Cashman has been with the franchise since 1998, orchestrating four World Series trips and two World Series wins for the New York team. He also signed a four-year extension in late 2022.
Manager Aaron Boone, on the other hand, seems less secure. Boone’s future with the franchise has been questioned before after disappointing playoff outings, while he also has just one year left on his contract.
The Yankees finished the 2023 season with an 82-80 record. This is their worst record in a full season since 1992 when they finished with 76 wins.
