If you’re choosing not to watch the rest of the MLB postseason, I don’t blame you at all.

Some would say that 2026 was a tumultuous season for the Yankees’ skipper, and there is a lot to be said about what went right in Aaron Boone’s decision-making and what eventually backfired to catalyze disaster.
