Jasson Dominguez: The Youngest MLB Player Making Waves with the New York Yankees

Since the spring, New York Yankees fans have been asking for Jasson Dominguez’s MLB debut, and although it took a few months, they are now enjoying the spectacle of “The Martian.”

The Major Leagues are revolutionized with the demonstration of the young Dominican, who came stomping to the fields of the majors and who will now make the management of the Bronx team think.

At 20 years and 213 days old, Domínguez is the youngest player in the entire MLB with four home runs in his first seven games.

He also joined Jesse Hill (1935) and Frank Laporte (1905) as the only Yankees players with three multi-RBI games in their first seven major league games.

Is it necessary to mention more marks that he has set in his first week in the majors? Well, he is now, along with Shelley Duncan, the only members of the Yankees to hit at least four home runs in the first seven games of his career. Duncan was his manager in Triple A.

At the moment it is difficult to ensure what New York’s plan is with the Quisqueyan. But the fact that Harrison Bader was let go and the disappearance of Isiah Kiner-Falefa from the lineup gives a warning that Dominguez may be on the team in 2024.

Manager Aaron Boone is amazed to see Dominguez’s first steps in the MLB but has not said anything regarding the future. He just warned that the outfielder will have a challenge.

“There will be tweaks and adjustments by opposing teams,” he said. “That’s a lot of what this game is, how you can adapt to that. Happens all the time. It will be constantly evolving.”

Although today he is proving that he can be a starting player, it is likely that his response to those adjustments will determine whether he will return to the minors or be in center field at Yankee Stadium for all of 2024.

In his favor he has not only what he has shown on the field and with his attitude. Also the support of team owner Hal Steinbrenner, who pushed to see him debut in the majors and is surely also in favor of letting him play for the big team next season.
