Part 7/12:
The Critical Need for Structural Changes
Given these shortcomings, the Yankees find themselves at a decision point. Should they keep their existing leadership, including Cashman and Boone, and hope that experience and minor adjustments will turn the tide? Or is it time for a wholesale overhaul, perhaps replacing key decision-makers or even the manager?
Speculation abounds about potential moves, including bringing in new coaching staff or changing the front-office hierarchy. The possibility of elevating Brad Ausmus to managerial duties, or making strategic trades, especially in the pitching department, is widely discussed. The direction taken in this offseason will profoundly shape the team's competitiveness in 2024.
