Yankees hope to bring back pitching coach Matt Blake with contract decision looming
October 4, 2026
The Yankees want to retain pitching coach Matt Blake, whose contract is up after 2026.
His timing couldn’t be better. The Yankees easily led MLB with a 3.23 team ERA.
The Brewers were second at 3.51.
Blake started as an unpaid “bird dog” scout for the Yankees while he was the pitching coach at Lincoln-Sudbury High outside Boston. But Blake now has a chance to join the exclusive ranks as a $1 million-a-year coach (or get close).
