Jasson Dominguez Getting a Day Off
Jasson Dominguez is out of the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the hosting Los Angeles Dodgers in a rematch of last year's World Series. With Dominguez on the bench, Ben Rice is serving as the designated hitter and will bat fifth against Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin. Dominguez will get a breather after going 4-for-18 with two RBI, three steals, a run scored, four walks and six strikeouts in six games since May 22. The 22-year-old Dominican switch-hitter is in his first full season in the big leagues in the Bronx and has so far mostly been a disappointment for fantasy managers with a .239/.339/.414 slash line, .752 OPS, six homers, 24 RBI, 26 runs and seven steals in 46 games played. Per his xBA of .240 and xwOBA of .337, he's producing exactly as expected given his batted-ball metrics. Rice has never faced Gonsolin and won't be a bad DFS play on Friday.
