Jasson Dominguez Receives Injection, Still a Few Weeks Away
New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his left shoulder, manager Aaron Boone told Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Dominguez is clear of concussion symptoms, but Boone said it will still probably be a few weeks before he can play again. The 23-year-old former top prospect made an outstanding play in the outfield for the Yankees last week, but he slammed into the outfield wall in the process and sprained the AC joint in his left shoulder. Thankfully, the Martian cleared the concussion protocol, but he will be sidelined for a few more weeks as he heals. With Giancarlo Stanton (calf) also on the 10-day injured list, the Yankees called up outfield prospect Spencer Jones for the first time over the weekend. By the time Dominguez is ready to return, Stanton could be back for the Yankees as well, which would complicate Dominguez's path to regular playing time in the Bronx. The Dominican switch-hitter did not make the Opening Day roster and went 6-for-30 (.200) with a homer, four RBI, and three runs in nine games for the Yanks before getting hurt. He's rostered in only 10% of Yahoo leagues right now.
