Jasson Domínguez has been performing well defensively in left field, though his absence from the batting lineup weakens the Yankees' offense. Manager Aaron Boone aims for him to play full games. The team's offensive issues were highlighted during a game against the Diamondbacks, where their lineup lacked much-needed right-handed hitting. Third base continues to be a notable weakness, with current players not meeting expectations, raising questions about potential external reinforcements despite reluctance to increase payroll.
As impressive as the Yankees offense looked in the season-opening series against the Brewers, the series opener loss against the Diamondbacks exposed the lack of another right-handed bat in the lineup.
The removal of his bat from the lineup serves to weaken the offense. Aaron Boone is hoping the young outfielder can progress to the point that they feel comfortable leaving him in left for an entire game.
