Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Boone sees big role in 2025
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that he expects Jasson Dominguez to be a "big part" of the team in 2025, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.Much to the chagrin of many Yankees fans, Boone largely stuck with Alex Verdugo as his primary left fielder over Dominguez during the regular season and postseason. However, Verdugo is now a free agent and seems unlikely to return, clearing a spot in the everyday lineup for Dominguez. What position the 21-year-old plays could depend on whether the Yankees' re-sign Juan Soto, but Dominguez is likely to be an everyday player either way. He has a .747 OPS with six homers and six steals over 100 career plate appearances in the majors and boasts ample fantasy upside.

Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Will return to lineup Saturday
Jasson Dominguez will be back in the lineup Saturday against the Red Sox, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.Dominguez is getting a day off Friday, and manager Aaron Boone says Giancarlo Stanton will be the odd man out Saturday. "That gives me two in a row with (Alex) Verdugo and yet it keeps me four or five with Dominguez," Boone said. "It's just wanting to keep guys active and playing and in rhythm." If Boone keeps this same logic, it sounds like Dominguez will play pretty regularly, but not every day, over the final weeks of the regular season.
