2024 Fantasy Outlook
It was quite an eventful age-20 season for The Martian. He was slow out of the gates at Double-A, logging a .685 OPS over his first 73 games. He seemingly flipped a switch in early July, slashing .372/.442/.557 with five home runs, 15 doubles, 18 steals on 22 attempts and a 17.3 K% in 44 games across Double-A and Triple-A before getting the call at the end of August. Dominguez took Justin Verlander deep on his first swing as a big leaguer and tallied four home runs and one steal in his first eight games before suffering a torn UCL that required Tommy John surgery. This is where things get murky. The Yankees are saying Dominguez will require 9-to-10 months to recover, putting his return date in the June/July range. Riley Greene underwent the same procedure at roughly the same time (mid September) and is expected to be ready for Opening Day, although unlike Dominguez, Greene's surgery was on his non-throwing elbow. Bryce Harper made it back as a first baseman in less than six months after undergoing the procedure on his throwing elbow in November of 2022. It may indeed cost Dominguez the first half of 2024 if New York will not bring him back as anything other than a center fielder, but it's possible he will be ready to hit in games as early as Opening Day. He hit third in seven of his eight big-league games, which is an excellent indicator of how he will be used when he returns to the Yankees lineup. Dominguez has the tools to go 15-15, even in a half season. Read Past Outlooks
Moving rehab to Double-A
The Yankees transferred Dominguez's (elbow) rehab assignment to Double-A Somerset on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The 21-year-old began the rehab stint with Single-A Tampa last week and will move up to Somerset after going 5-for-13 with a double and four walks in four games. Dominguez is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre once he completes the rehab assignment since there's no opening for him in New York's current outfield alignment.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to replace Verdugo in 2025
Dominguez, who is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery, is the Yankees' likely replacement next season for Alex Verdugo, who isn't expected to be re-signed during the offseason, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Both of New York's corner outfielders will hit free agency this offseason, and Verdugo seems unlikely to be retained, while a massive effort will be made to re-sign Juan Soto. Dominguez is expected to remain in the minors this season once he completes his rehab assignment, as there's no real place for him in the big-league outfield this year. The 21-year-old top prospect should get his chance in 2025, however.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
2021
2020
Dominguez's career has been a bit of a roller coaster, and he doesn't turn 20 until February. One of the most highly-touted international signees of the past decade, Dominguez didn't meet expectations in 2021, albeit as the youngest hitter at Single-A. He responded positively, both in a return to Single-A (134 wRC+) and, most impressively, after a promotion to High-A, where he slashed .306/.397/.510 with an 18.5 K% in 40 games. Dominguez has plus bat speed and still runs well for his size (roughly 5-foot-9, 200 pounds), although the thunder in his bat figures to age much better than his foot speed. More concerning than his struggles (.467 OPS) in the Arizona Fall League are poor reports on his defense and makeup. He can look good in center field at times, but he can also be a major liability, and he shows a sense of entitlement that could become an issue if he goes through major struggles at Double-A. Dominguez has the talent to develop into a high-OBP middle-of-the-order run producer who chips in a handful of steals, but there is still a wide range of outcomes for the young switch hitter.
