4 years agoNew York Yankees manager Aaron Boone is taking a medical leave of absence from the team to receive a pacemaker in his heart. The Yankees are optimistic that Boone can return to the team within the next few days so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact on the team's lineups during the regular season, and hopefully Boone can stick to that timeline. In the meantime, bench coach Carlos Mendoza will fill in for Boone and everyone should hope that Boone's procedure goes smoothly.--Sam Chinitz
