New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez has been sent back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Dominguez, the Yankees No.1 prospect per MLB Pipeline appeared in Sunday's contest, but went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. The talented outfielder recovered from Tommy John surgery earlier in the year, but then had another set back with an oblique injury. When on the field, the 21-year-old has been productive with a .298 batting average to go along with seven homers and 24 RBI in 40 games. He is likely to return to the Yankees during September call-ups and will be worth rostering in all formats when that happens.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez is being promoted to the major leagues for Sunday's game in Willliamsport, Penn., as the 27th man, according to Newsday. Dominguez has spent the entire summer in the minor leagues but has been limited as he has battled numerous injuries. Through 40 games split between several levels of the Yankees system, the switch-hitter has held a stellar .298/.365/.477 slash line with seven round-trippers, 24 RBI, and nine swiped bags. The top prospect in the Bronx got a brief taste of the majors last season and posted a .258 average with four long balls and one stolen base across a small eight-game stint. The 21-year-old is likely to be sent back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Sunday's game, but the man they call the Martian will have an immediate fantasy impact in all formats once he returns to the Bronx for good, likely when rosters expand in September.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez snapped his power drought by going deep on Wednesday evening. Entering this game, the switch-hitting center field carried an 18-game power outage. Through August, the top prospect in the Bronx has struggled with a disappointing .154/.233/.282 line. Prior to this stretch, Dominguez held a strong .360/.400/.640 line across several levels of the minor leagues with six home runs. Dominguez got a brief taste of the majors last summer and showcased his elite potential by going deep four times across eight games. The 21-year-old has been limited by injuries all summer but still has a very good chance to return to the big leagues down the stretch.
New York Yankees top prospect Jasson Dominguez has slowed down his production in August, hitting just .135/.179/.189 in 37 at-bats this month at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Yankees GM Brian Cashman recently said there was no current path for Dominguez to get a call-up to the big leagues. Meanwhile, the 21-year-old has struggled since returning from a strained oblique in late July. The Martian is hitting .283/.340/.457 across three levels this season with six homers and 21 RBI in 36 games in an injury-interrupted campaign. Dominguez still has a bright future but fantasy managers most likely won't see him in the Bronx until 2025.
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez doesn't have a clear path to a big-league call-up anytime soon. "There's currently no lane for us to bring him. It's nice to know he's there. He's just knocking rust off and waiting for his opportunity if it comes," general manager Brian Cashman said. "He's healthy. Ultimately, the injuries this year prevented him from getting much of a bulk of performance. He's definitely sitting there waiting in the wings if need be, playing mostly in centerfield. I think we're going to get him over in left. He's done multiple positions in his career. He's just waiting in the wings, hungry and waiting to see if he gets his chance. It's nice to know he's available to us if need be." The 21-year-old got a late start in 2024 while recovering from Tommy John surgery, and then he missed almost six weeks with a strained oblique. Dominguez should be an immediate fantasy contributor across all categories when he's in the Bronx, but that may not come until 2025.
