With Giancarlo Stanton returning to the New York Yankees' lineup, the pressure intensifies on rookie Jasson Dominguez. Reportedly, manager Aaron Boone is considering Dominguez for the leadoff position against right-hand pitchers, where he has shown potential, batting .269 with a .353 OBP. Conversely, his performance against lefties has been disappointing, with a mere .172 average.

This lineup adjustment affects Trent Grisham and pushes Cody Bellinger to center field. Moreover, Dominguez faces scrutiny after a costly baserunning mistake recently. Boone emphasizes a need for accountability, urging Dominguez to be both productive and clean in his performance. The Yankees are looking for Dominguez to step up as they navigate a tight playoff race.
