The New York Yankees have decided not to promote highly touted prospect Jasson Dominguez to the major leagues despite the roster expansion, instead opting to bring up outfielder Duke Ellis and relievers Ron Marinaccio and Scott Effross, as well as activating veteran first baseman Anthony Rizzo from the injured list. Manager Aaron Boone indicated that Dominguez remains in the conversation for a promotion but emphasized the need for regular playing time, which is currently occupied by outfielders Alex Verdugo, Aaron Judge, and Juan Soto. Dominguez has shown strong performance in the minors, batting .359 since mid-August, but the team may be considering his rookie eligibility for 2025, which would offer a compensation pick if he wins Rookie of the Year. The Yankees' decision also reflects a strategic choice to maintain continuity with their current lineup while positioning Dominguez for a potentially impactful role next season.
