The Yankees called up their No. 2 prospect, center fielder Jasson Domínguez, on Wednesday ahead of their series against the Astros, per MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch.
Also known as “The Martian,” Domínguez originally wasn’t projected to get the call up to the majors until the 2024 season. But, that timeline has apparently changed.
The 20-year-old just started playing for the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre team last week. In his first game with the team, he recorded a hit in three of his six plate appearances. In his nine games with the team, he averaged .419/.514/.581 with six runs scored and 13 hits.
