Can I watch Yankees on Amazon Prime? Schedule & subscription details explored

After a string of injuries and cold snaps led to one of the Yankees' worst performances of recent times in 2023, the team eyes big changes in 2024.

Despite laying claim to one of the most loyal and historic fanbases in baseball, the 82-80 2023 performance ruffled a lot of feathers. Amidst some high profile offseason moves, fans in the Bronx are hoping for a better result this season.

Although all 162 Yankees games will be broadcast on the YES Network, who acts as the team's official television partner, an increasing number of fans are opting to stream. As one of the most popular streaming services available today, many have looked to Amazon Prime as a possible way to catch the action.

Yankees will seek to recapture the imagination of their fanbase

Although streaming-inclined Yankee fans have a great option at their fingertips, their willingness to watch their team will depend on performance. Now with a spring record of 3-2, fans are anxiously waiting to see more of new hires like Marcus Stroman and Juan Soto, but also familiar names like Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole. These names will seek to ensure that viewership does not tail off in the late stages of the season, like it did in 2023.
