New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone says the team does not owe Aroldis Chapman an apology regarding the way he was handled during the 2022 postseason. The comments come a day after Chapman said he believes he is owed an apology from the Yankees for how he was treated at the end of the 2022 season. According to the reports, Chapman was left off New York’s postseason roster for the American League divisional series against the Cleveland Guardians in October 2022 after he skipped a mandatory workout with the team prior to the series. The outlets also note that earlier in 2022, Chapman missed time because of a leg infection that developed after he got a tattoo. Boone’s position is that there is no reason for the Yankees to offer an apology, despite Chapman’s public remarks that the situation warranted one. The reported dispute centers on the postseason disciplinary decision tied to the missed workout and the broader question of whether Chapman’s treatment was justified given his injury-related absence earlier that year.
