The New York Yankees’ problems at the left field are not going to end anytime soon until the management takes a strong decision. With spring training coming to an end, the Yankees are still not clear on whom to play the left field. Considering his last year’s form, if Aaron Hicks does not improve his game, the Yanks might actually have to replace him with someone deserving. But the question is, who will be that player?
A young prospect of the minor leagues, after showing potential in spring training, has made the fanbase desire the twenty-year-old to make the roster for the upcoming season. The AA Dominican player, Jasson Domínguez, after leading the Yanks to victory against the Atlanta Braves, has already become a fan favorite.
Do New York Yankees have a new star in the works?

It looked like a loss for the Yanks in yesterday’s game. If it weren’t for the Jasson Domínguez-aided snowman on the roster in the ninth inning, the Bombers would have lost. But the young star took it upon himself to bring victory to his team. In case someone couldn’t catch up with the game last night, have a look at the 89 jersey wearer’s intergalactic home runs, who led the Yanks to victory.
As soon as this clip went up on Twitter, Domínguez’s home run led fans to want the front office to remove the non-roster tag from him and call him on the upcoming season’s roster.
Following are some of the reactions of baseball fans toward Jasson Domínguez’s amazing home run.

While most of the fans want him to be on the opening-day roster, one of them thinks that Cashman will somehow find an excuse to keep him in the minors. Meanwhile, a few of them think that he is already better than their center fielder, Aaron Hicks.
What changes did the Yanks make in the off-season?
Re-signing of Aaron Judge and the signing of Carlos Rodon has been the highlight of the Yanks’ off-season. Aside from this, the Yanks came to terms with a contract for their pitcher Nestor Cortes, extended the contract of their general manager, Brian Cashman, and brought in two advisors with him.
