When Yankees fans first learned about Jasson Domínguez, it was because their newest international signing was being compared to players such as Mickey Mantle and Mike Trout. While those expectations might be impossible for anyone to meet, Domínguez is developing into a solid big leaguer, even while learning a new position on the fly. The young stud chatted with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz for this week’s episode, discussing his development, his struggles with injuries and much, much more. Stick around for our second segment, in which YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits joins to chat about the news around the Yankees, and to recap a wild trip to the wrong clubhouse in Tampa. Finally, Yankees senior museum curator Brian Richards opens the History Books, offering a chapter on some of the greatest single months by Yankees players.

Season 3, Episode 2: Paul Goldschmidt
We’ve got regular season baseball games to talk about, and we couldn’t be happier about it.

Then, Jon is joined by co-host Meredith Marakovits of the YES Network as she braves the frigid temperatures in Detroit to talk about stories from the road through the season’s first two weeks. Finally, we kick it over to the (climate-controlled!) New York Yankees Museum presented by Bank of America, where senior museum curator Brian Richards opens the History Books to tell a story about another remarkable power surge in Yankees history.

Season 2, Episode 24: Yoendrys Gómez
It’s the second season finale of the New York Yankees Official Podcast, and before we raise the curtain on the 2025 season, we have one more great episode to close out the spring. Yoendrys Gómez might not be a household name yet, but he has been on the Yankees’ prospect list for years, and this past offseason, as he tells Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz, he did something no Yankees big leaguer ever has before. Gómez graduated from the team’s Dominican Academy, walking in the ceremony and receiving his high school diploma; while several of his teammates have done this before, none has while appearing on the 40-man roster. Gómez and Schwartz talk all about the Yankees’ Dominican operation, plus the pitcher’s goals for 2025. Then Yankees Magazine executive editor Nathan Maciborski zooms in to chat about World Series grand slams and some other stories coming in the team’s official 2025 Yearbook. Finally, Yankees senior museum curator opens the History Books for a great lesson on Luis Arroyo.
