The Lions of the Chosen One selected the prospect in the third round Jasson Dominguez in the draft of natives of the Lidom-Dominican League.
Jasson Dominguez who was allowed to pass twice by the six teams; he was finally chosen in the third round by the Lions of El Escogido in the 15th position of the third round, who now have an incredible litter of young players in LIDOM.
It is obvious that they did not choose him before because it is difficult to see him play here, because his organization brings many limitations.
Just think that at some point there may be an alignment of Julio Rodríguez, Wander Franco, Vladimir Guerrero Jr and Jasson Dominguez You must scare any other LIDOM team.
However, there is a sad side in Domínguez’s case and that is that he belongs to the Yankees, not only that, but he is their promise player in the Minor Leagues and on top of that he has a bonus of 5 million invested. Dominguez he’s hitting 263. with 5 homers, 19 RBIs, 5 stolen bases, 27 runs scored and 46 hits.
We are talking about the youngest prospect ranked in the MLB, as well as the second best prospect of the organizations with great prestige in all the Big leagues.
Ever since the Yankees signed this kid for $ 5 million and placed him as the number one prospect in their organization through August 2021, they’ve had the idea that he can play center field. Aaron Hicks’ contract expires in 2023, Brett Gardner is in his final year of contract, and Aaron Judge’s future on that team is uncertain.
Leones del Escogido selected Jasson Dominguez in the third round of the Dominican Winter League draft.
This has no baring on the Yankees and it’s not required to play. Notable players to play with them in the winter include David Ortiz, Vlad Jr, and Starling Marte. https://t.co/gAkwIg1Wrg

Without a doubt the Yankees have no plans to switch to Jasson Dominguez on the road, rather than watching him grow up with them and debuting with the striped uniform in the MLB, so they have made it clear that he is going to be a center fielder.
