Is Jasson Dominguez a Must-Add Outfielder with Everyday Playing Time in New York?
After spending the first month of the 2026 season at Triple-A, New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez suffered a shoulder injury in early May that caused him to miss another month. However, the 23-year-old is back to full health, and injuries to Yankees outfielders Aaron Judge (ribs), Trent Grisham (hamstring), and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) have opened the door for Dominguez to see everyday playing time. Across a small sample size of 62 MLB plate appearances this year, Dominguez is hitting .241/.279/.431 with two home runs, five RBI, six runs scored, and three stolen bases. The former top prospect flashed upside across 429 plate appearances with the Yankees in 2025, hitting .256 with 10 home runs and 23 stolen bases. Defense and the crowded outfield picture in New York have always been the limiting factors for Dominguez's playing time, but he should have an extended runway to prove himself this time around. With consistent at-bats, Dominguez offers the potential for five-category production and is worth a look on the waiver wire for fantasy managers.
