Jordan Lawlar Nears Major League Return as Rehab Assignment Progresses to Triple-A
Lawlar has not played a major league game recently, having been sidelined since early April with a broken right wrist. The promising shortstop has commenced a rehab assignment at Triple-A Reno, representing a major step toward his return. In his absence, the second-place Diamondbacks (34-31) have relied on Geraldo Perdomo as their everyday shortstop.
Before the injury, Lawlar displayed his high-upside potential in a brief six-game stint, hitting .333 with a home run and a stolen base. Our models project him to compile 8 home runs, 7 stolen bases, and a .232 average over 151 at-bats for the rest of the season. His minor league track record suggests the power and speed are real, making him a prime stash candidate.
Arizona has six road games scheduled this week against Miami and Cincinnati, including matchups against vulnerable pitchers like Ryan Gusto (10.80 ERA) and Nick Lodolo (5.51 ERA). Lawlar will not be active for these games as he finishes his rehab assignment, but he must remain rostered. Verdict: Sit.

Jasson Dominguez Begins Rehab Assignment, Nearing Return for Yankees
Jasson Dominguez is making tangible progress toward a return, having officially commenced a Triple-A rehab assignment on June 5 after suffering a left shoulder AC joint sprain in early May. The second-place Yankees, currently locked in a tight battle for the division lead with a 38-26 record, have sorely missed the young outfielder's spark but will proceed cautiously. With star Aaron Judge also on the injured list, Dominguez's return to the active roster will be a massive boost once he is fully cleared.
Before the injury, the 23-year-old switch-hitter was off to a quiet start, batting .200 with one home run in nine games. However, our season models still project a productive rest-of-the-year outlook, including 8 home runs and 8 stolen bases over 345 at-bats. Fantasy managers should remember his 2025 campaign, where he flashed five-category potential with 10 homers and 23 steals, indicating his high-ceiling upside when healthy.
The Yankees travel to face Cleveland and Toronto this week, but Dominguez will spend the entire period on his minor league rehab assignment to regain timing. Because he remains inactive on the major league roster, he cannot be used in active lineups for these matchups. Keep him stashed on your injured list, but he is a mandatory Sit for the week ahead.
