Jasson Dominguez Snaps Power Drought

New York Yankees outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez snapped his power drought by going deep on Wednesday evening. Entering this game, the switch-hitting center field carried an 18-game power outage. Through August, the top prospect in the Bronx has struggled with a disappointing .154/.233/.282 line. Prior to this stretch, Dominguez held a strong .360/.400/.640 line across […]

Ian Hamilton To Throw Live Batting Practice This Week

New York Yankees right-hander Ian Hamilton (lat) is scheduled to resume throwing live batting practice sessions this week. Hamilton is ready to take the next step after throwing a few successful bullpen sessions. If the 29-year-old reliever can get through a few live BP sessions, he'll be ready to go on a minor-league rehab assignment. […]

Jon Berti Could Begin Rehab Assignment Next Week

New York Yankees infielder Jon Berti (calf) continues to do some hitting and fielding at the team's spring training complex in Tampa and could start a minor-league rehab assignment next week. Because of the fact that Berti hasn't played in a game since May 24 due to his calf injury, he could require a pretty […]

Anthony Rizzo Swinging And Fielding

New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo (forearm) has been swinging a bat and doing some fielding, but his broken forearm is still in the healing phase. Manager Aaron Boone said that Rizzo hit "full bore" on Tuesday off a Trajekt pitching machine as he continues to recover from a fractured right forearm. The 35-year-old […]

Jazz Chisholm Jr. Officially Lands On 10-Day Injured List

The New York Yankees placed infielder/outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Aug. 13) with a left-elbow sprain on Wednesday and recalled infielder Oswald Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move. Chisholm suffered a UCL sprain in his left elbow on Monday night and will now miss at least […]

Will Warren Recalled, Starting On Wednesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Will Warren has been recalled to take the mound against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday. This appears to be a spot start for Warren, so fantasy managers looking for long term help aren't likely going to get it here. Warren has allowed 12 earned runs over two starts with […]

Giancarlo Stanton Gets A Breather

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The veteran slugger will get a routine rest day after going 1-for-8 over the last two games. The 34-year-old is unlikely to ever get back to his All-Star form, but he at least […]

Oswald Peraza To Join The Yankees

With New York Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (elbow) expected to land on the 10-day injured list, infielder Oswald Peraza is being called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday, according to sources. Chisholm, who was acquired from the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline at the end of July, suffered a UCL injury on […]

Jasson Dominguez Slumping In August

New York Yankees top prospect Jasson Dominguez has slowed down his production in August, hitting just .135/.179/.189 in 37 at-bats this month at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Yankees GM Brian Cashman recently said there was no current path for Dominguez to get a call-up to the big leagues. Meanwhile, the 21-year-old has struggled since returning from a […]

New York Yankees right-handed pitching prospect Chase Hampton (groin), who is ranked by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 3 prospect, left his minor-league start early on Saturday due to a groin injury.
