Outlook Jasson Dominguez
Jasson Dominguez returns from the injured list to anchor a depleted Yankees outfield
Since returning from the injured list on June 13, Jasson Dominguez has appeared in three games, batting .231 with a home run. The first-place Yankees (45-27) are currently riding a four-game winning streak but desperately need his bat with Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and Trent Grisham sidelined. This rash of injuries locks Dominguez in as the primary everyday starter in right field.
While his brief three-game sample size shows a modest average, our models project Dominguez to settle into a .238 batting average with steady power and speed rest-of-season. His 2025 campaign, where he racked up 10 home runs and 23 stolen bases in 124 games, demonstrates his high-upside profile. With his shoulder healthy, his power-speed combination is completely legitimate.
For the remainder of the week, Dominguez has several friendly matchups at Yankee Stadium. He will face Chicago's Sean Burke (4.15 ERA) and Cincinnati's Rhett Lowder (4.60 ERA) before a tougher weekend test against Andrew Abbott and Chase Burns. Given his guaranteed everyday volume in a potent lineup, he is a fantastic lineup option. Verdict: Start.
