The Yankees don't have a mascot currently, but they once had a mascot named Dandy.
As found on Wikipedia: = Dandy (mascot) = === From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia === Dandy was the mascot of the New York Yankees between 1980 and 1985. He was a large pinstriped bird that sported a Yankees hat. He had a mustache that gave him an appearance similar to that of former Yankee pitcher Sparky Lyle. His name was a play on the classic American folk song "Yankee Doodle Dandy." In the upper deck area of Yankee Stadium, to which Dandy was confined by upset Yankees management, Dandy was beaten up by fans who didn't want a mascot. George Steinbrenner in 1998 claimed he "had no recollection" of Dandy as a mascot. Along with this experiment, the Yankees briefly had mascots resembling ballpark food (plus Yankees hats on top) during the mid-1990s. Outside of these two occasions, the Yankees have not had an official mascot or Cheerleading squad roam the stands or perform on the field. Unofficial mascots have included a squirrel that Terry Kidder of the New York Times nicknamed "Right Field Ratatosk" after it was seen on the right field foul pole in late 2007.

When was the New York Yankees logo made?
Artist Lon Keller provided artwork for the New York Yankees top hat logo in 1946. The Interlocking NY logo found on the Yankee Uniform and Hat was first designed by Louis B Tiffany in 1877, This was designed as a medal for the New York Police Department and awarded to the family of Officer John McDowell (The first NY Police Office killed in the line of duty). The Interlocking NY made it's first appearance on the uniform of the NY Highlanders (the Original Yankee club name) in 1909. This was worn on the left sleeve and hat. The NY logo was actually removed in 1917 and remained off for 20 years. The Yankees revived the NY Logo , placing it on the right side chest in 1936. It is still the uniform design today The now iconic pinstripes on the NY Yankee uniform first appeared in 1912. They abandoned them in 1913, 1914 and brought them back in 1915. The pinstripes were never removed from the Yankee uniform again.
