Player Outlook
It was quite an eventful age-20 season for The Martian. He was slow out of the gates at Double-A, logging a .685 OPS over his first 73 games. He seemingly flipped a switch in early July, slashing .372/.442/.557 with five home runs, 15 doubles, 18 steals on 22 attempts and a 17.3 K% in 44 games across Double-A and Triple-A before getting the call at the end of August. Jasson Dominguez took Justin Verlander deep on his first swing as a big leaguer and tallied four home runs and one steal in his first eight games before suffering a torn UCL that required Tommy John surgery. This is where things get murky. The Yankees are saying Dominguez will require 9-to-10 months to recover, putting his return date in the June/July range. Riley Greene underwent the same procedure at roughly the same time (mid September) and is expected to be ready for Opening Day, although unlike Dominguez, Greene's surgery was on his non-throwing elbow. Bryce Harper made it back as a first baseman in less than six months after undergoing the procedure on his throwing elbow in November of 2022. It may indeed cost Dominguez the first half of 2024 if New York will not bring him back as anything other than a center fielder, but it's possible he will be ready to hit in games as early as Opening Day. He hit third in seven of his eight big-league games, which is an excellent indicator of how he will be used when he returns to the Yankees lineup. Dominguez has the tools to go 15-15, even in a half season.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Behind Verdugo in GM's eyes

    General manager Brian Cashman said Friday that "(Dominguez) is doing everything he needs to do right now, and (Alex) Verdugo is playing better baseball recently," per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Dominguez is slashing .378/.432/.595 with four home runs, 10 steals and a 14.8 percent strikeout rate in his last 74 at-bats for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Meanwhile, Verdugo is hitting .341 with one home run, six strikeouts and one walk in his last 11 games. Cashman reserved the right to change his mind about which outfielder gives the Yankees the best chance to win, but for now the starting job in left field belongs to Verdugo.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Denied Sept. 1 call-up

    The Yankees did not recall Dominguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday, though he could still join the big club later this month, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports. Rather than Dominguez, the Yankees promoted another outfielder in Duke Ellis from Triple-A to fill one of the openings on the active roster, which expanded from 26 to 28 players Sunday. The decision not to promote Dominguez likely stems from the big club not having an everyday role available for the 21-year-old; Alex Verdugo, Aaron Judge and Juan Soto serve as the Yankees' regular starting outfield trio, while Giancarlo Stanton is a full-time designated hitter. Instead, the Yankees will turn to a non-prospect in Ellis to fill out a bench spot as a pinch-running specialist and late-inning defensive replacement, while Dominguez will likely stick around with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for the time being to get regular at-bats. As Bryan Hoch of MLB.com notes, Dominguez will retain rookie status for 2025 if he does not exceed 130 at-bats -- he has 35 for now -- with the Yankees this season, which would allow the team to pick up a compensation pick in 2026 if he wins the 2025 American League Rookie of the Year Award. With that in mind, it wouldn't be overly surprising if Dominguez remained at Triple-A until Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's regular season ends Sept. 22.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Candidate for Sunday call-up

    The Yankees could recall Dominguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports. It's not clear whom the Yankees will select for their two additional roster spots when the active roster expands from 26 to 28 men Sunday, though rehabbing veteran Anthony Rizzo (forearm) has a good chance of being activated from the 60-day injured list to take one of them. Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Dominguez is also "a name in consideration," noting that if he does get promoted, it will be so he can play regularly and not sit on the bench. Dominguez got to play in one game for the big club when he served as the 27th man for the Little League Classic versus Detroit on Aug. 18, and he went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in that game. The 21-year-old has been excellent in the minors this season, slashing .309/.368/.485 with eight home runs, 27 RBI and 15 steals over 50 contests across three levels, with his most of his time spent with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Returned to minors

    Dominguez was returned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday. Dominguez came up as the extra man for the Little League Classic and was in the starting lineup, batting fifth while playing left field. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts and will now head back to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Up as 27th man

    The Yankees appointed Dominguez as the 27th man for Sunday's game against the Tigers in the Little League Classic at Williamsport, Penn. Both teams get an extra player for Sunday's game at a neutral site, and New York will use that roster spot for its top prospect. Dominguez has struggled to a .612 OPS at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since returning from an oblique injury in late July, though he's hit better recently and has gone 7-for-17 in his past five games. The 21-year-old is in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest but will still return to the minors after the game, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, since there's no clear path to regular playing time with the big club.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Reinstated from Triple-A IL

    Dominguez (oblique) was activated from the 7-day injured list by Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Dominguez missed nearly six weeks of action with a strained oblique. The top prospect has slashed .389/.405/.639 with two home runs in nine games during his time with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season and will be a candidate to a promotion to the majors during the second half, particularly if the Yankees aren't able to add the offensive help they desire at the trade deadline.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Playing games soon

    Dominguez (oblique) took live batting practice Monday in Tampa Bay and is expected to join Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to play in games "within a week," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Dominguez sustained a strained left oblique in mid-June and was expected to miss up to eight weeks. However, he's ahead of schedule and will return before August. Still, it's likely that Dominguez will be eased into action. The 21-year-old outfielder has a 1.044 OPS in 37 plate appearances with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season and could be a candidate to join the Yankees later in the season.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Remains far off from return

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Dominguez (oblique) "still has got a ways to go" before he's ready to resume playing, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Boone's comments aren't surprising, given that the skipper previously indicated Dominguez would be out up to eight weeks after he was diagnosed with an oblique strain in mid-June. Dominguez is currently at the Yankees' training complex in Tampa but hasn't been able to do much, according to Boone. He had been impressing at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre prior to suffering the injury, slashing .389/.405/.639 with two home runs, three RBI and two stolen bases through nine games.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Out eight weeks at Triple-A

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Dominguez will be out for up to eight weeks at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre due to a "significant" left oblique strain, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports. Boone labeled Dominguez's oblique strain as "moderate" Wednesday, but the injury now appears to be more severe than the Yankees initially believed. The 21-year-old outfielder already missed the first two-plus months of the Triple-A season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, and an eight-week return timeline will keep him out of action until at least mid-August.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Nursing moderate oblique strain

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Dominguez is dealing with a moderate left oblique strain, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports. Dominguez was injured on a check swing Saturday while playing for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The Yankees haven't yet established a timeline for Dominguez's return to game action, but it wouldn't be a surprise if a moderate oblique strain resulted in at least a month-long absence. Dominguez began the season on the Yankees' 60-day injured list as he continued his recovery from Tommy John surgery. He's hit .389/.405/.639 with two home runs in nine games during his time with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Placed on IL at Triple-A

    Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre placed Dominguez on its 7-day injured list Sunday with what Yankees manager Aaron Boone termed as a left side injury, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. The 21-year-old was formally activated from the Yankees' 60-day injured list earlier this week after a long recovery from Tommy John surgery and was subsequently optioned down to Triple-A. Over nine games at Triple-A thus far, Dominguez hasn't taken long to settle into a groove at the plate, as he was slashing .389/.405/.639 with five extra-base hits and two stolen bases prior to being deactivated. The extent of Dominguez's side injury isn't fully known yet, with Boone noting that the young outfielder is set to undergo further testing.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Early exit not related to Soto

    Dominguez (elbow) exited in the eighth inning of Thursday's rehab game with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but the departure was unrelated to the injury sustained by Juan Soto (forearm), Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports. Dominguez's removal was planned, as he has yet to play a full game on his rehab assignment as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery. Of course, it's still possible Dominguez could replace Soto on the big-league roster should the latter miss time. Soto is set to undergo imaging on his left forearm Friday, and the results will dictate how the Yankees proceed. Dominguez is slashing .339/.397/.581 with four home runs over 68 plate appearances covering 17 rehab contests.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Continuing rehab at Triple-A

    Dominguez's (elbow) rehab assignment was extended an additional 10 days and will continue at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the Yankees announced Tuesday. Dominguez will make another step in his recovery from Tommy John surgery he underwent last September, bumping his rehab assignment up to the Triple-A level. He's already appeared in 14 minor-league games split across Double-A Somerset and Single-A Tampa, and Dominguez will likely require a handful more at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before being activated. Even when cleared, Dominguez will have a tough time cracking New York's active roster considering its abundance of outfield talent.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Playing outfield in rehab game

    Dominguez (elbow) will start in center field and bat second for Double-A Somerset in a rehab game Wednesday versus Bowie. Dominguez already has 10 rehab games under his belt, but Wednesday will mark the first time that he's started in center field since he underwent Tommy John surgery last September. The 21-year-old's ability to play the outfield likely signals that he's completed his throwing program, but Dominguez is still likely to remain on his rehab assignment for the full 20-day window or close to it. The Yankees don't have an everyday role available in the outfield for Dominguez at the moment, so he'll likely be optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre once he's reinstated from the 60-day injured list.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Moving rehab to Double-A

    The Yankees transferred Dominguez's (elbow) rehab assignment to Double-A Somerset on Tuesday. The 21-year-old began the rehab stint with Single-A Tampa last week and will move up to Somerset after going 5-for-13 with a double and four walks in four games. Dominguez is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre once he completes the rehab assignment since there's no opening for him in New York's current outfield alignment.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Likely to be optioned after rehab

    Dominguez (elbow) is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre once he's activated from the 60-day injured list after his 20-day rehab window concludes, Randy Miller of The Newark Star-Ledger reports. Dominguez began a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Tuesday as he comes back from Tommy John surgery. He will serve as the designated hitter for 10-to-14 days before eventually playing the outfield. The 21-year-old needs time to knock some rust off since he went eight months without playing games, so he'll likely need longer than the 20-day rehab allotment before he becomes an option for the Yankees. Additionally, the Yankees are happy with their current outfield situation, so there's not room for Dominguez to take on a regular role right now, barring injury. Dominguez is still a worthy stash in fantasy leagues given his upside, but it's possible it might not be until 2025 that he gets another extended run with the big club.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Beginning rehab assignment Tuesday

    Dominguez (elbow) will start his rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.comh reports. Yankees manager Aaron Boone noted Saturday that Dominguez will be the DH for the first two weeks of the assignment. Dominguez has continued to progress in his recovery from Tommy John surgery, and he can spend a maximum of 20 days on his rehab assignment before the Yankees will have to activate him. Dominguez could then be optioned for additional time to knock off the rust.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Nearing rehab assignment

    Manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Dominguez (elbow) is "inside two weeks" to begin a rehab assignment, Chris Kirschner of The Athleticreports. The 21-year-old's rehab from Tommy John surgery has apparently been progressing nicely, and he's close to being cleared for game action. Dominguez will require a lengthy rehab assignment before being reinstated, but he appears on track to return before the All-Star break.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Increases throwing distance

    Dominguez (elbow) has been throwing from 120 feet, per MLB.com. Dominguez continues to make progress in his recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last September. In addition to throwing, the 21-year-old has has been taking swings from both sides of the plate, and Yankees manager Aaron Boone said earlier in the week that the young slugger is "doing really well." Should he continue to move forward without issues, Dominguez could play in a minor-league rehab game by the end of April.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Slated to play catch soon

    Dominguez (elbow) is scheduled to play catch soon and expected to begin swinging a bat before the end of spring training, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Dominguez has already been shagging fly balls as he works his way back from late-September Tommy John surgery. The Yankees are offering only the rough timetable of "summer" for the young outfielder's projected return at this point, with more clarity on that front available likely after Opening Day.
