New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez (oblique) is at the club's complex in Tampa Bay but has been limited in his activities, manager Aaron Boone said before Tuesday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays. Boone relayed that Dominguez's workload is "not much of anything yet" and that he "still has got a ways to go there." Barring a significant injury to a member of New York's outfield, it's beginning to sound like Dominguez isn't going to be much of a factor in the 2024 regular season. The 21-year-old top prospect is recuperating from a significant left oblique strain and probably won't be available to the Yankees until sometime in September after an eventual minor-league rehab assignment, so fantasy managers in redraft leagues without many stash spots might want to consider cutting bait at this point.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (oblique) will miss up to eight weeks with what manager Aaron Boone is now calling a significant oblique strain. It's a tough break for the Yankees, Dominguez and fantasy managers that have been stashing the team's top prospect all year in single-season formats with hopes that he'd take over as New York's primary center fielder by the second half of the season. The 21-year-old recently finished his rehab assignment while recovering from Tommy John surgery last year, but then he suffered a serious oblique injury while playing for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. With another significant injury setback, there's now a chance we won't see Dominguez at all in 2024 until perhaps the tail end of the year.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (elbow) will continue his rehab assignment at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after playing the last 10 games at Double-A Somerset. During his 10-game run at Double-A, the 21-year-old hit .316 (12-for-38) with four home runs, eight RBI, eight runs scored, and a stolen base. He also had a successful four-game stretch at Single-A where he went 5-for-13 (.385). Unfortunately for fantasy managers that have been stashing the switch-hitter, Dominguez will likely stay at Triple-A once he is eligible to come off the injured list, as the Yankees outfield is crowded right now and they do not currently need him with New York owning the best winning percentage in baseball. Regardless, he should continue to be stashed in all formats, as he'll be a multi-category producer whenever he does get the call.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (elbow) has been performing very well in his rehab assignment. On Friday, the 21-year-old launched his third home run in five games and tallied three total hits to extend his hitting streak to six games. The top prospect in New York ended the 2023 season in the major leagues and performed quite well with a .258/.303/.677 slash line with four home runs and one stolen base. However, he underwent Tommy John surgery last fall, which has kept him sidelined through May. Dominguez is a must-stash player in all formats, as he will provide five-category production when given the opportunity to play in the major leagues.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (elbow) played five innings in center field on Wednesday with Double-A Somerset, his first time playing the field on his minor-league rehab assignment after serving as the designated hitter the first two weeks. In his 10 rehab games with Somerset and Single-A Tampa, Dominguez has gone 12-for-39 (.308) with two home runs and six RBI as he continues to recover from Tommy John surgery last September. The Yankees aren't going to rush the 21-year-old back to the big leagues, though, with manager Aaron Boone already saying that Dominguez will be sent to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre when his rehab window is up. Eventually, the guy they call the Martian is expected to be the starting center fielder in the Bronx in the long term, and he has tons of fantasy upside.
