At times like these, along with his team looking prefer it has forgotten how you can win a game, Aaron Boone explained he listens only to music on his rides to and from the ballpark and watches just “Seinfeld” repeats.
His routine has been inspired particularly by a post-elimination speech that he said Giancarlo Stanton gave at Fenway Park in October 2021, when the slugger cautioned his teammates to not wander away on the earth of social media and bathe in that negativity. Over time since — particularly within the postseason — Stanton has refined his thoughts to notice that if you should go on the lookout for it, you will see places that elevate your greatness or worsen your poorest moments and that neither has any real value and may only be detrimental.
Boone has admired the sentiment a lot and the way Stanton cordons off outside distractions that he has made a part of his spring training presentation to counsel players to know themselves well, and that in the event that they can’t take the fury on the worst times, then to specifically stay off social media.
I used to be talking to Boone about this because often in the previous couple of weeks of bad play, the Yankee manager has talked in regards to the must “block out the noise.” So I asked him what he meant by “the noise,” and he reflected upon how wall-to-wall, non-stop, notably in Latest York, the criticism can are available in bad times and the way detrimental to the psyche it may well be. Which is why he was in his music/”Seinfeld” phase to avoid the relentless “Yadda, yadda, yadda” of reproval.
