Yankees get exciting Jasson Dominguez injury update — return could be just days away
The Bronx exhaled as one when word came down: Jasson Dominguez will likely avoid a stint on the injured list. The young New York Yankees outfielder jammed his left thumb during a stolen base attempt on Sunday, immediately drawing concern from fans and team officials. Advertisement Though he left that game and missed Tuesday's series opener against Cleveland, Dominguez has reportedly made strong progress and could return in a matter of days. Aaron Boone described the injury as 'just a couple of days thing,' and noted it has been improving daily. That's a relief for a Yankees club with postseason aspirations and a lineup that increasingly leans on Dominguez's maturing offensive presence. Credit: Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Dominguez's production is real — and only getting better This season, Dominguez has been quietly excellent, slashing .247/.346/.420 with six home runs and eight stolen bases. Those numbers might not jump off the page yet, but his 119 wRC+ signals he's producing well above league average. Advertisement Like an orchestra conductor learning to master every instrument, Dominguez seems to be developing an all-around game. His plate discipline has improved markedly, with his walk rate climbing and his chase rate falling. At just 21 years old, he's already showing flashes of the five-tool potential scouts dreamed of when he was a teenaged phenom. And those who've shared the field with him believe the best is still ahead. A work in progress defensively, but a spark plug with the bat While his defense in left field still shows occasional growing pains, his bat more than makes up for any learning curve. Dominguez brings speed, power, and a knack for getting on base — exactly the type of offensive toolkit the Yankees need right now. Advertisement His stolen base that led to the thumb injury was emblematic of how he plays the game: all-in, full-throttle, unafraid of the moment. Though that moment briefly knocked him out of action, it also underscored the value he adds to New York's lineup. He's an energy source, a spark plug, and increasingly, a dependable offensive threat. Timely return would give the Yankees a critical boost With the Yankees looking to maintain momentum, Dominguez's return can't come soon enough. He was starting to get more playing time when he got hurt, and could resume his newfound semi-regular role. Boone's optimism, coupled with Dominguez's daily progress, suggests he may rejoin the lineup before the end of the Guardians series. Advertisement Even a brief absence is better than a multi-week stint on the shelf, especially for a young player whose rhythm at the plate has been steadily improving. Credit: Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Dominguez continues to rise as New York's future centerpiece Though still technically a rookie, Dominguez plays with a poise beyond his years. His swing has gotten shorter and more direct, his approach more disciplined. Each at-bat feels like another layer of confidence being added to his growing game. He's not just part of the Yankees' future — he may already be central to their present. He may not be a household name just yet, but in the Bronx, the buzz is building.
