I'll say cutting the chord is probably the best decision I ever made and am in the same boat with YES Network as a Yankee fan.  It takes some getting used to but it works well.  As I was making my decision on streaming services, I was all set to sign up for YouTubeTV as they had a great line-up of channels and a nice looking interface.  Two days after I started my YoutubeTV free trial, they dropped the YES Network.  So I ended up going with Hulu which was slightly more expensive and worked out 300mbs internet plus phone line for $78 from Cablevision.  Yankee games will be streamed on various other services like Prime, Facebook and ESPN throughout the season but over the summer, I tend to ONLY watch Yankee games at night so I didn't want to be limited to the select games on those services.

Bottom line I had some anxiety about cutting the chord, but it's great.  I also invested in an Netgear Orbi "mesh" router that was recommended to me by the cable technician when he came to swap my modem and the streaming never drops.  I guess the routers that they provide can't handle the 200-300mbs speed.  Go figure.

Cut the chord and don't look back my friend!
