The Athletic | Brendan Kuty: Last year, Jasson Domínguez made quite an impression when called up, but he was out of the game after eight games due to an injury that required Tommy John surgery. This year, his return has proceeded without a hitch, and the team seems to have nothing but positive things to say about his recovery appearance. But since his rehabilitation assignment is about to end, it’s unlikely that he’ll be moving to Triple-A rather than the majors.
There is currently no true outfield opening for “The Martian,” with Aaron Judge and Juan Soto looking like the stars they are and Alex Verdugo having a strong season both in the field and at the plate. You wouldn’t want to force Domínguez to play the role of Trent Grisham, who has essentially been reduced to a fourth outfielder even though he could most likely produce more. The young player seemed to comprehend the situation, and his minor-league manager has complimented him on his maturity. He will probably remain in the minors for the time being.
Jack Baer | Yahoo Sports: Aaron Judge calmed everyone’s concerns over the month of May, despite his poor start. He also became the first MLB player to reach 20 for the season on Friday night with two home runs. He also broke a franchise record for the Yankees in the process. In May, Judge shattered a record held by Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth with 25 extra-base hits. You’ve most likely done something right if you find yourself in a statistic with those two.
Greg Joyce at the New York Post: Pitcher Clarke Schmidt of the Yankees sought counsel from other pitchers in the league after suffering a lat strain and being placed on the injured list. Former colleague Luis Severino, who experienced many lat strains during his Yankee career, and current one Gerrit Cole are among people he spoke with about managing them.
Last but not least, the Yankees formally traded Codys for Poteet and demoted Morris. The former, who had been in Triple-A due to a blister, returned to the team on Saturday in San Francisco to take Schmidt’s place in the rotation.
