The New York Yankees, even after being one of the most powerful teams in Major League Baseball, are often criticized for subpar play. The Bronx-based side has not won or reached the world series in the last 13 years. Moreover, in these years, they have clinched the postseason berth only a few times. Rubbing salt into their woes, the Yanks have been heavily trashed by their fans. Further, if it wasn’t for the AL home run king, Aaron Judge, they may have missed the postseason last year as well. 

After a lengthy postseason, when baseball is back in action with spring training, some minor league prospects have come to fame. Primarily because of the amazing play that they put on. To name a few, Jasson Dominguez and Anthony Volpe have caught the eyes of many. However, a recent update on Dominguez has left many fans irked.

New York Yankees fans left enraged

Jasson Dominguez is a Dominican Republic player who signed with the Yankees in 2019 for a franchise record of $5.1 million. Ever since El Marciano signed with the Yanks in 2019, he has shown the potential to be an impressive player. In 2022, the Yankees promoted Dominguez to the Somerset Patriots of the Class AA Eastern League. And now, the 20-year-old got invited to spring training as a non-roster player.
