🔥 Jasson Domínguez: Delivers Another Multi-Homer GameJasson Domínguez continued his offensive tear on Friday, going 2-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI, a walk, and a stolen base in the Yankees’ narrow 6-5 defeat to the Mets. It marked the second time this season the dynamic switch-hitter has launched multiple homers in a game. Domínguez also pushed his hitting streak to six games and is making a compelling case to secure a permanent spot in New York’s packed outfield. Over his last 13 appearances, he’s batting a blistering .426 (20-for-47), with two homers, three doubles, a triple, and four stolen bases.

⚾ Joel Kuhnel: Inks Deal with YankeesRight-hander Joel Kuhnel signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Friday, just one day after being released by the Phillies. The 30-year-old reliever recorded a 3.62 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 32.1 innings with Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season. Kuhnel will now serve as depth in the Yankees’ bullpen pipeline, ready to step in if needed later this year.

💣 Cody Bellinger: Keeps Streak Alive with 13th HomerCody Bellinger stayed hot at the plate Friday, belting his 13th home run of the season while going 1-for-4 in the loss to the Mets. The blast extended his hitting streak to 10 games, capping off an impressive turnaround after a slow start in April. Since May 4, the veteran outfielder has been on a tear, slashing .305/.357/.527 with 23 extra-base hits, 29 RBI, 30 runs, and six steals in his last 50 games.

👽 Jasson Domínguez: “The Martian” Returns to Spark the YankeesYankees outfield phenom Jasson Domínguez is making headlines once more. After a promising MLB debut in 2023—where he hit .258 with four homers, seven RBI, and a stolen base in just 33 plate appearances—Domínguez is back on the big-league radar. His most recent call-up last August was less electrifying (0-for-4 with three strikeouts), but the Yankees remain hopeful that their 21-year-old star-in-the-making can deliver a boost to a team chasing championship dreams.Nicknamed “The Martian” ("El Marciano") because of his seemingly otherworldly talents, Domínguez carries with him the hopes of a fanbase longing for a spark in the outfield. The nickname originated in the Dominican Republic when an impressed observer remarked that Domínguez’s abilities were “not of this world”—a moniker that stuck with him since signing with the Yankees at age 16.Like a baseball version of Kal-El landing in Smallville, Domínguez’s arrival is wrapped in mythos and high expectations. Comparisons to legends like Mike Trout, Bo Jackson, and Mickey Mantle have followed him for years, and now he faces the challenge of living up to that hype at the major league level.Even his first name carries Yankees lore. Domínguez’s father, a diehard fan of the Bronx Bombers, named him after former AL MVP Jason Giambi. At 5-foot-9 and 190 pounds, Domínguez may not match the towering presence of Aaron Judge, but he’s built like a compact powerhouse—broad, fast, and explosive.The Yankees originally signed him in 2019 with a $5 million bonus as an international free agent. Currently pre-arbitration eligible, he earns $720,000 per season, giving New York significant value for one of its most electrifying young players.
