    Apr 30 2026
    Jake Hirst, what is it you would say you do here, exactly? It’s time to meet the Yankees’ newest assistant hitting coach, a guy who might be a newcomer to the big-league staff this year, but one that Yankees players have known well for years.

Then, YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits stops by to chat about Hirst’s impact on the team’s offense, her travel routine and the debut of stud prospect Elmer Rodriguez.

    Season 4, Episode 4: David Bednar
    Apr 2 2026
    Every moment that a closer is on the mound makes for something of a hot seat, so for David Bednar, sitting down for an interview with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz for the New York Yankees Official Podcast was hardly a challenge worth noting. But still, the Yankees’ closer, who came over in a deadline deal last year, prefers to do his talking on the field. Quiet and mild-tempered, yet quick to laugh, Bednar has been a force out of the bullpen for his new team, and he chats with Schwartz about leaving his hometown squad to pitch for a winner, rising from the depths of the MLB Draft’s 35th round and pitching for Team USA in the last two World Baseball Classics. Plus, YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits chats with Jon about the first week of the season, the weather forecasts in the Bronx and much, much more. Lastly, we send it to the New York Yankees Museum Presented by Bank of America, where senior museum curator gets us ready for the home opener with stories about Yankees who hit two blasts in their season debuts.

    Season 3, Episode 22: Ryan Yarbrough
    Jan 29 2026
    Ryan Yarbrough joined the Yankees just days before the end of spring training last year, and he turned out to be a much-needed swing-man for the team’s pitching staff, moving between the starting rotation and the bullpen. He’s back in pinstripes for 2026, this time with a bit more runway before Opening Day, and he took some time out of his last-minute prep to chat with YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits about all that makes him excited about being back with the Yankees. Then, Meredith and Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz chat about the role that Yarbrough can play this year, and they recap this past weekend’s BBWAA Awards Dinner, at which Aaron Judge received his third career AL MVP Award. Finally, Brian Richards opens a fascinating chapter of the History Books, looking back at the offseason when the Babe had to get back in shape. Learn more about your ad choices.
