General manager Brian Cashman said Friday that "(Dominguez) is doing everything he needs to do right now, and (Alex) Verdugo is playing better baseball recently," per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.
Dominguez is slashing .378/.432/.595 with four home runs, 10 steals and a 14.8 percent strikeout rate in his last 74 at-bats for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Meanwhile, Verdugo is hitting .341 with one home run, six strikeouts and one walk in his last 11 games. Cashman reserved the right to change his mind about which outfielder gives the Yankees the best chance to win, but for now the starting job in left field belongs to Verdugo.
