He also hates the idea of pitchers having personal catchers... especially when we have such an elite back stop!! I loved that!!!

From all the interviews I've seen/read so far... it seems like Boone will make a great fit. Hopefully his actions back up his words.

It's easy to speak out. It's also easy to get your way if all is going well...I'll have a wait and see attitude about it all. I'm just happy that Girardi is gone. I didn't particularly dislike him, but I also didn't particularly like him, either...I'd like the manager to be likable. Not lovable, just likable...

I didn't dislike him but I feel like managers have a shelf life and he expired a few years ago. I guess they felt "if it ain't broke don't fix it," the past couple years but with a younger team his style wasn't quite meshing anymore...

I believe that he believes it. I don't believe that when it happens he's going to put himself at risk of being fired. Girardi did that in Miami and it didn't go well. If Cashman and Boone are arguing about this, it won't be good for either of them.

We can also hope that Cashman has told him that he isn't going to meddle with the lineup and that is why Boone had the confidence to say that to the press...Reading the actual text of the conversation, it doesn't say what the headline says. The headline is inflammatory, and probably simply to get readers to read the article...
Asked before Monday night’s 4-2 loss to the Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field if he thinks he will be the guy to fill out the lineup card, Boone responded quickly and firmly.
“I don’t think, I know,’’ Boone said.
Now Boone knows the game has changed, and he understands the data is an important part of what goes on inside an organization so he won’t ignore the information at hand.
“I talk to them all the time and I want the models and what makes the most sense, and that is part of the input for me,’’ Boone said. “But [the lineup] will always be mine.’’

Until then it doesn't mean much to me, but I have high hopes for him.
