Jasson Dominguez is one of the Yankees‘ most exciting young players, but that doesn’t mean he’s being handed a starting job for the 2025 season.
Manager Aaron Boone made it clear on Tuesday that while he’d “like to see” Dominguez start in left field, the 22-year-old has to go out and earn it in spring training. It’s not so much a challenge as it is a way to keep him focused, ensuring he doesn’t take his role for granted before proving himself on the field.
Dominguez Still Needs to Prove He’s Ready
While the expectation remains that Dominguez will be part of the Yankees’ Opening Day lineup, Boone is being careful with his words.
