Mon Sep 9 | 17:08 | Yankees Recall Jasson Dominguez From Triple-A |
The New York Yankees recalled outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday and also placed infielder DJ LeMahieu (hip) on the 10-day injured list with a right-hip impingement. The Yankees also reinstated infielder Jon Berti (calf) from the 60-day IL and designated left-hander Anthony Misiewicz for assignment. Dominguez, the club's top prospect, is starting in center field on Monday and is batting sixth against Kansas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer in the Bronx. The Yankees recently said that the 21-year-old wouldn't come back to the big leagues unless he was going to play regularly, so the Martian should play every day down the stretch for the Bombers. Injuries have been the story of his 2024 season after he recovered from Tommy John surgery, but now that Dominguez is in majors to stay, he should be rostered in all fantasy formats. |

Tue Sep 3 | 15:35 | Jasson Dominguez To Remain In Triple-A |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez will remain with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre as the team called up outfielder Duke Ellis. Dominguez, the team's top prospect, and the #16 overall prospect according to MLB Pipeline, appeared in one game this season, going hitless in four at-bats before being sent back down. He is hitting .307/.367/.490 with nine homers, 28 RBI, 34 runs scored, and 15 stolen bases with three minor league teams after returning from Tommy John Surgery. Dynasty managers will have to wait until next season before Dominguez will have the opportunity to play in the majors. |

Mon Sep 2 | 21:16 | Jasson Dominguez Still "Very Much In Play" For Promotion |
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said it's still "very much in play" that outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez gets called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. "Frankly, there's probably no one higher on Jasson Dominguez than me. He's very much in the mix, but we're not ready to make that move yet," Boone said. Dominguez was not one of the players that the Yankees called up when rosters expanded on Sunday, although the 21-year-old they call the Martian is still an option to join the Bombers down the stretch. He should be rostered in most fantasy leagues since he could make an immediate impact in all categories if he comes up and sees regular playing time, but he's also running out of time to make noise in fantasy. The Dominican switch-hitter has been injured in 2024 but has been excellent at Triple-A when healthy, slashing .298/.354/.457 with five homers, 18 RBI and 14 steals in 38 games. |

Sun Sep 1 | 12:24 | Jasson Dominguez Sticking In Minors For Now |
The New York Yankees did not call up top prospect Jasson Dominguez to the big leagues with rosters expanding on Sunday, Sept. 1. Instead, the Yankees activated first baseman Anthony Rizzo (forearm) from the 60-day injured list and recalled right-handers Ron Marinaccio and Scott Effross and outfielder Duke Ellis from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. It's disappointing for fantasy managers in single-year leagues that have been stashing the Martian, but it doesn't mean the 21-year-old won't join the Yankees at some point this month. He was called up as the 27th man for a game earlier this month and went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. When New York calls the Dominican outfielder up, they want to have an everyday role for him. Injuries have limited Dominguez to only 37 games at Triple-A this year, but he's been excellent when healthy, hitting .306/.359/.469 with five homers, 18 RBI and 14 stolen bases. |

Sat Aug 31 | 12:12 | Yankees Haven't Decided If They'll Call Up Jasson Dominguez |
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said the team has not yet decided if it will promote top outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez when rosters expand on Sunday. Dominguez was slashing .299/.351/.453 with four home runs and 17 RBI through 34 contests with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre entering action on Friday. "We'll see," Boone said. "He's certainly one of those guys that will be in conversation for that. I feel like he's doing a good job after being a little slow coming back from the [left oblique] injury. I feel like he's been stringing together some days of good work and good at-bats. He's definitely a name in consideration." The 21-year-old came up for one game as the 27th man for a doubleheader on Aug. 18 and went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts before being sent back down. It would be a surprise if Dominguez weren't called up, but he also wouldn't be guaranteed regular playing time. |

Wed Aug 21 | 10:06 | Jasson Dominguez Racks Up Four Hits |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez recorded a four-hit night for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday. It was his second four-hit performance at Triple-A this season, bringing his slash line with the RailRiders to .305/.365/.438. Dominguez was called up briefly as the 27th man on Sunday for the Yankees but returned to the minors. He wasted little time ramping back up his hitting with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The 21-year-old switch hitter has battled injury this season but is beginning to round into form as he seeks a late-season call-up to New York. |

Tue Aug 20 | 10:01 | Jasson Dominguez Returns To Triple-A |
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. |

Sun Aug 18 | 15:02 | Jasson Dominguez Promoted To The Major Leagues |
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. |

Thu Aug 15 | 08:14 | Jasson Dominguez Snaps Power Drought |
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. |

Wed Aug 14 | 10:12 | Jasson Dominguez Slumping In August |
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. |

Sun Aug 11 | 12:54 | No Current Path To Big-League Call-Up For Jasson Dominguez |
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. |

Tue Aug 6 | 19:14 | Jasson Dominguez Stuck In Power Slump |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez has been cold at the plate since returning from the Triple-A injured list. Dominguez hit the IL in late June with an oblique strain and officially returned to action on July 26. In his first nine games back with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre he has held a disappointing .185/.267/.222 slash line with just one extra-base hit. He has yet to go deep. In his other 23 games across the minor leagues this summer, the top prospect in the Bronx has boasted a .356/.404/.609 line with six round-trippers. While injuries have kept the center fielder out for a majority of the season, he could still make an impact in redraft leagues later this summer. He is a worthy stash candidate, given his potential to contribute to all five standard categories. |

Sat Jul 27 | 12:28 | Jasson Dominguez Drives In Two In First Game Back |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (oblique) went 1-for-4 with two RBI and two strikeouts in his first game back with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday night after being activated from the seven-day minor-league injured list. Dominguez opened the 2024 season recovering from Tommy John surgery and then missed extended time with strained oblique, but he's back now. It's been a year of setbacks for the 21-year-old top prospect for the Yankees, and although he's their center fielder of the future, they aren't going to rush him back to the big leagues in the second half this year. Dominguez hit .389/.405/.639 with two homers in nine games for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before his injury. He should make an immediate impact in all fantasy leagues when he's back in the Bronx, making him stash-worthy in all formats. |

Tue Jul 23 | 19:54 | Jasson Dominguez To Resume Playing In Games "Within A Week" |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (oblique) took live batting practice in Tampa on Monday and is traveling to join Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday to resume playing in games "within a week," according to manager Aaron Boone. The Yankees' top prospect, per MLB Pipeline, Dominguez is ahead of schedule in his return from a left-oblique strain that he suffered in mid-June, although the Bombers aren't going to rush the 21-year-old back. He was already rehabbing from right-elbow surgery earlier this season before injuring his oblique, and there's no guarantee that the Martian will head to the big leagues at the end of his rehab assignment. But when Dominguez does return to the Bronx, he will be an immediate contributor in all fantasy leagues. The Dominican outfielder has hit .356/.404/.609 with a 1.014 OPS, six homers and 13 RBI in 23 minor-league games in 2024. |

Wed Jul 17 | 10:10 | Jasson Dominguez Still A Ways Away From Return |
New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (oblique) is still on the mend from an injury suffered about a month ago. Yankees manager Aaron Boone initially announced an eight-week timetable for the slugger with his right oblique injury and speaking last week, Boone said Dominguez still has a ways to go before returning. The 21-year-old has impressed at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre when healthy this season, hitting .389 in nine games. But it has been mostly a lost season for the Dominican due to various injuries. He could push for a promotion late in the season once healthy and remains a big part of the Yankees' future plans. |

Tue Jul 9 | 21:41 | Jasson Dominguez Not Close To Game Action |
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. |

Thu Jun 20 | 16:04 | Jasson Dominguez Out Up To Eight Weeks With Oblique Strain |
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. |

Mon Jun 3 | 23:11 | Jasson Dominguez Will Move Rehab To Triple-A |
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. |

Sat Jun 1 | 07:40 | Jasson Dominguez Extends Hitting Streak With Three-Hit Performance |
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. |

Wed May 29 | 13:51 | Jasson Dominguez Plays Outfield Wednesday |
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. |
