I have mutiple Edh decks and I'm currently working on a Yasova Dragonclaw build and I'm looking for a similar interaction that I have in my othe Edh deck between commander Alesha, Who Smiles At Death and Bog Witch any ideas, any help would be awesome since I'm currently stumped.
Edit: the style of interaction is gaining more than one mana at instant speed to be able to active Yasova Dragonclaw's triggered ability
A grave is the safest place to store ill-gotten treasures.

I think you may be misunderstanding how Bog Witch and Alesha actually work together. There is no way to use the mana from Bog Witch to reanimate the card that you discarded. If you discard the card at the beginning of combat step, before the declare attackers step, then the BBB empties from your mana pool when you change steps. If you attack with Alesha and put her ability on the stack you need a target to already be in the graveyard. Since declaring attackers in a game action it happens immediately upon entering the declare attackers, before any player receives priority, so you do not have a chance to use a mana ability before the trigger goes on the stack.
I understand the movement through phases it was more of the ability to ad the mana necessary to activate alesha's triggered ability and by having 3 mana added I only need one more to active her trigger twice in the same turn so it is not so much the need to use the discarded card as to be able to have more mana

You can only pay for Alesha's trigger once per attack. To get 2 creatures you either need to attack twice or use Strionic Resonator. The same goes for Yasova; it is one creature per trigger.

Thank you for the reminder that I need to be thorough in how I word my responses. I don't have this deck posted and I am aware of the need for the Stronic Resonator and thank you for the suggestions.
I have looked at Orcish Lumberjack a few times but not sure how I feel about using it unless I add either a Crucible of Worlds or Ramunap Excavator as examples.

In terms of sacking opponent creatures after you control them, Food Chain, Greater Good, Evolutionary Leap, and Eldritch Evolution all work really well. For control, you have Captivating Crew, Sarkhan Vol, Overtaker, Chamber of Manipulation, etc. To pump up Yasova's power, Rhonas the Indomitable and Hero's Blade are popular.

As to your question at hand, you can use things like Goblin Clearcutter or Orcish Limberjack.

Goblin Clearcutter, Krark-Clan Stoker, Orcish Lumberjack, Treasonous Ogre and others would do the same, usually with a clear downside or a certain board state required.
Or you could just play a ton of mana dorks like Birds of Paradise.
