During their storied history, the New York Yankees have counted great players among their captains, including of course Derek Jeter and Don Mattingly, who are the latest in the list.
And now these two names could be reunited again, but this time in the studios of the YES Network, the television network of the Bronx Bombers.
The New York network is busy building its programming for next year and the two legends are currently free as air for the next campaign.
Indeed, Mattingly announced last September 25 that he would not lead the Miami Marlins in 2023. For his part, Jeter also parted ways with the Marlins this year after stepping down as CEO in February. .
It would be a big addition to an already well-heeled panel and Yes Network President of Programming and Production John Filippelli knows that very well.
“You don’t say no to Derek Jeter and Don Mattingly, if there’s a place for them in your universe, you find a way to make it happen. We haven’t had an in-depth discussion with either of them. If they are available and interested, you should at least have a conversation. »
The two protagonists certainly have the required qualifications as players, but that does not necessarily mean that they will excel in a TV studio.
Moreover, Carlos Beltran’s experience was mixed last year.
