Jasson Dominguez On The Bench Against Royals
2 months agoNew York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez is on the bench again for Game 3 of the American League Division Series on Wednesday at Kauffman Stadium against the Kansas City Royals. Dominguez hasn't started a single game in the ALDS to this point despite getting some decent run as the team's left fielder to close out the regular season. Alex Verdugo will get the nod in left field again on Wednesday and will hit ninth against Royals right-hander Seth Lugo. Verdugo has had only seven career at-bats against Lugo, but he has three hits against him (one double), one RBI and a strikeout. The 28-year-old has looked good so far in the first two games of the ALDS, going 3-for-7 with an RBI, a walk and two runs scored. Against righties in 429 plate appearances in the regular season, Verdugo hit .235 (92-for-392) with 11 of his 13 home runs. In the nine-hole, he's a deep DFS sleeper on Wednesday.
