Let the record state: we believe the New York Yankees will defeat the Boston Red Sox in the AL Wild Card series. Most Yankees fans are not happy this is their opponent, especially since one more lousy win would've given them a division title, but they have to play the hand they are dealt. And most of us are looking for revenge for what the Sox did to the Bombers in the playoffs in 2004, 2018 and 2021.
However, in the event things go off the rails (something we've seen plenty of times with this team) and they are bounced once again by their most hated rival, there's one drastic offseason decision that will quiet the loud criticism from the fanbase: the Yankees need to part ways with manager Aaron Boone.
