I’m confident Dominguez would earn his way into the cleanup spot by the end of the season. Verdugo-Stanton-Torres-Rizzo isn’t exactly a murderers’ row in terms of competition. Hope he gets a chance.
Perfect solution that unfortunately will never happen. Sell high on Stanton and try to trade him and Dominguez goes right into the DH spot. Stanton does have a no trade clause. The Giants have been missing out on all the big free agents. It’s on the west coast. The value of Stanton will never be any higher.

At risk of getting slammed, I agree with this 100%. Yes, Stanton is having his best season in years, but yes, he is likely to get injured soon and/or revert back to the guy who hits the ball to the moon in one out of every 23 at-bats...but strikes out in 14 of the other 22. See if he will agree to go to one of the California teams, and the Yankees eat a big chunk of the money. There's the slot for Martian.
Not surprising. No sense half assing his recovery.
I agree. With Dominguez dominating in AAA, maybe just put Soto on the IL and bring up Dominguez. Grisham is not the answer.
Wait. Why would you put Soto on the IL exactly? The Yankees are historically over cautious with injuries. If he’s going to miss a bunch of time, they will IL him but none of us know anything about the injury. Rushing to put him on the IL just because sounds like a plan that comes from not having any knowledge of the injury
Course I have no info. I’m just sayin IF they continue to say he’s available and still not have him pitch hitting AND having Grisham playing it might be something to consider. He’s already missed 3 games. Assume doesn’t get in tonight.

I hear what you’re saying but he’s missed two games so far, not 3 and they are saying he may be available tonight (though not starting) and he is likely back during the Royals series, possibly as soon as tomorrow. Soto is also on record as saying this injury doesn’t affect him at all on the field. Knowing all of that and the fact that this division could very likely come down to a game or two I just don’t see a reason to throw away 7 more games if it’s not necessary. Players play through shit all the time and I’m not a fan of rushing guys to the IL when it’s not needed

I'd say it was a success.
His batting average is below 200 and his OBP is below 300 in that span.
I'd say it was a success.
Success if he feels well tomorrow. Good to hear he was maintaining the speed.
Good. That was a horseshit effort covering first before he let up the salami
Well the announcer said "429" but I think she was cheating him by about 59 feet or so. Judge for yourself...
Link - ( New Window )
Dominguez continues to LITERALLY dominate AAA.
Dennis Santana (who sucks absolute ass) DFA'd.
Marinaccio called back up.
Great day.
BTW, can you imagine, Volpe, Verdugo, Soto, Judge and Dominguez all in the same lineup? Good God, I almost feel bad for the other teams' pitchers.

Started out well and steadily fell apart as the year worn on....hasta la vista
The Yankees are loaded in the outfield. They need a new infield around Volpe.
Because he is a lefty????

Ugh. Sorry, meant to reply to Mitch
