  • My go to Pod

    As a diehard Yankees fan, I have found my podcast. The crews knowledge of both the major and minor league teams goes above and beyond any other podcast out there. There are a ton of podcasts to choose from, and I am thankful for Fireside Yankees. It’s great to find a podcast that comment comments on the current team in the future in the farm system. This is a rarity in today’s podcast universe. Keep up the great work! I will be listening!

    It’s a couple of kids talking about baseball without much perspective. Just reciting numbers with no real feel for the game itself.

  • Yankee Hype

    On the 1/26/25 pod the hosts proudly admitted to helping the Yankees hype their prospects. Which means… listeners can’t actually trust the evaluations of players. Don’t bother with this pod and listen to Talkin’ Yankees instead

  • Trolling trash

    Every single thing that’s wrong with the worst Yankees fans. Arrogant and Ignorant. My guess is they’re trolling to get a reaction.
