Josh Donaldson didn't have the season he was hoping for in 2022. His 27.1% strikeout rate and his .347 slugging percentage were the lowest they had been since his first full year in the league in 2011.Even with the year the third baseman had, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone seems to have full confidence that Donaldson will bounce back. At the moment, he has no plans to trade away Donaldson and feels the 2022 season was a fluke year for the slugger."As we sit here right now, absolutely. He's been an offensive machine for the best part of his career. I think it was one of those years where he was searching for that consistency," New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Josh Donaldson starting third base next season.Chris Kirschner@ChrisKirschnerAaron Boone on Josh Donaldson being the starting 3B next season, via @TMKSESPN: "As we sit here right now, absolutely.

He's been an offensive machine for the best part of his career. I think it was one of those years where he was searching for that consistency."Fans weren't too thrilled to hear these comments from Boone. They were hoping that the team would have a massive overhaul this offseason. However, it seems as if Josh Donaldson is going to be staying in the hot-corner for the Yankees.The three-time All-Star certainly isn't a fan favorite. Against the Houston Astros in the postseason, he only hit .077, making him an easy target for the fans to place blame. He received heavy boos during that series against Houston."I will be done if they roll the same team out minus Judge," one fan explained.Steven Cartier@f3Cataracts@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN I will be done if they roll the same team out minus Judge1@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN I will be done if they roll the same team out minus Judge"This team is such a joke," said another.Gerardo Feo@gerardofeo27@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN This team is such a joke1@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN This team is such a jokeKirk Cousins Enjoyer@KirkEnjoyer@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN How do you say “it was one of those YEARS” with a straight face???2@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN How do you say “it was one of those YEARS” with a straight face???Yankee Doodle Dandy@dandythemascot@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN Boone living in 20151281@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN Boone living in 2015NYJ 5-3@nyc_jet@ChrisKirschner @TMKSESPN OFFENSIVE WHAT????

How come we can see it and they can’t ?Some fans are wondering why the organization can't see Josh Donaldson's shortcomings, but the fanbase can. They want serious change around their organization, but it doesn't sound like it will come this offseason.Josh Donaldson will look to bounce back in 2023Championship Series - New York Yankees v Houston Astros - Game 2The most important thing an athlete can have is confidence from their coach. With Aaron Boone's comments, Josh Donaldson doesn't have to spend the offseason worrying if he's going to be playing somewhere else.This will allow him to relax and figure out what went wrong for him at the plate this season. He can refine his mechanics and come back better next year.He isn't the type of player to put his head down when he's not competing at his best. There's no question that he will work hard this offseason to get his game back to where he wants it.
