This has been a quiet offseason for the New York Yankees (so far), but manager Aaron Boone told reporters on Friday that the team is “probably not finished” as the hot stove season continues, per Greg Joyce<\/a> of the New York Post.<\/p>\n

“The one thing is, I know we have a really good team right now \u2014 we have a lot of really good players on our roster,” Boone said.<\/p>\n

“It’s probably not finished, there’ll be tweaks I’m sure up until spring training. So whatever happens, our expectation is that we’re going to be really good and that’ll be our focus, on getting ready. \u2026 That’s the front office doing their thing and working through.<\/p>\n

“It always takes more than just us to tango. It takes sometimes other clubs, obviously free agents and the opportunities they have in front of them. However it lands, my expectation is that we’re going to be really good and that’s how we’ll prepare.”<\/p>\n

Boone made his remarks prior to handing out both toys and food to local families at the New York Police Department’s 44th Precinct, located just a few blocks north of Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Yankees haven’t added anyone to the MLB roster yet, but they did bring back a few players from last year, including outfielder Trent Grisham (on a one-year qualifying offer) and utility player Amed Rosario (one-year deal). <\/p>\n

New York also picked up their 2026 club option on left-handed relief pitcher Tim Hill’s contract and re-signed another southpaw reliever, Ryan Yarbrough, to a one-year deal.<\/p>\n

The Yankees lost a couple relief pitchers to the New York Mets in Devin Williams (three years, $51 million) and Luke Weaver (two years, $22 million).<\/p>\n

New York is looking to improve upon a 94-win season that saw the team dramatically defeat its arch-rival, the Boston Red Sox, in the American League Wild Card Series before losing to the eventual AL pennant-winning Toronto Blue Jays in the AL Division Series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This has been a quiet offseason for the New York Yankees (so far), but manager Aaron Boone told…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":359895,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[558],"tags":[64,63,591,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-359894","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mlb","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-mlb","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/359894","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=359894"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/359894\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/359895"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=359894"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=359894"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=359894"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
