The New York Yankees made a controversial decision to sign manager Aaron Boone to a three-year extension after his deal expired at the end of the 2021 season. General manager Brian Cashman indicated that the team still needs to solve a few spots, including a shortstop position which they hoped Gleyber Torres would fill long-term.
However, some of their current players are still dealing with injury, but most are hopeful to return by spring training and prepare for the start of the 2022 regular season.
To start, starting pitcher Jameson Taillon will have surgery on October 28, commencing a five-month recovery, which would conclude in March.
