Yankees MILB 5/28: Jasson Dominguez Homers

News:

Nothing

Scranton (32-19) (Lost to Toledo, 10-0)

2B Jorbit Vivas1-for-3, 3B (1), BB, K
Vivas’ rehab assignment is over and he was (predictably) assigned to Scranton.
SS Oswald Peraza0-for-3, BB, K
1B T.J. Rumfield: 0-for-4, K
Rumfield is in a minor 2-for-21 slump. More importantly, he has an extra-base hit slump that has reached 16 games.
C Carlos Narvaez: 1-for-2, 2 BB
Narvaez owns a 17.1% BB rate. A backup catcher who flashes an offensive tool or two is valuable in MLB (Narvaez also has some pop in his bat).
DH Jose Rojas0-for-4, K
RF Oscar Gonzalez0-for-4, K
LF Taylor Trammell2-for-4, 2B (4), K
Trammell is 11-for-47 (.234) since joining Scranton.
3B Jeter Downs0-for-2, BB, HBP, 2 K
CF Greg Allen0-for-3, SAC, 2 K

LHP Edgar Barclay: (L, 3-3): 5 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K
A much-needed solid evening for Barclay, who has struggled recently.
LHP Clayton Andrews1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, HR
RHP Art Warren0.2 IP, 5 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 3 HR
RHP Yerry De Los Santos: 1.1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K


Somerset (22-24) (Lost to Bowie, 10-2)

1B Ben Rice1-for-4, HR (12), RBI, RS
Last 7 games: 7-for-24 (1 double, 4 HR, 8 RBI, 7 R, 5 BB, 4 K). On the season, he is hitting .242/.368/.503 in 191 PA (14.7% BB, 21.5% K). The Yankees continue to give him a lot of time behind the plate (great for value!), but he should be considered a candidate for the 2024 first base job if Anthony Rizzo is not retained.  
DH Jasson Dominguez1-for-4, HR (2), RBI, RS, 2 K
Dominguez has homered in two of his last three games. Last 4 games: 7-for-18. The bat has predictably heated up.
C Agustin Ramirez1-for-4
Ramirez had a big head start in the Eastern League (and organizational) home run race, but Rice has caught him. Anyway, he is hitting .275/.383/.569 in 183 PA, so I won’t worry about a random 11-game homerless streak.
CF Spencer Jones0-for-3, BB, 2 K
It may be surprising to hear Jones is on an 11-game on-base streak. It hasn’t been the prettiest of streaks (6-for-41, 8 walks, 21 K), so take it for what it is worth.
SS Ben Cowles1-for-3, 2B (16), BB, K
.320/.408/.529 in 184 PA (16 doubles, 2 triples, 4 HR, 29 RBI, 29 R, 7-for-7 SB)
3B J.C. Escarra0-for-4
LF Grant Richardson2-for-4
.295/.360/.484 in 136 PA. Back-to-back multi-hit efforts and seven 2-hit games in his last 13 games played (0 hits in the other 6 games).
RF Elijah Dunham0-for-3, BB
2B Anthony Seigler0-for-3, BB

LHP Brock Selvidge: (L, 4-3) 3.2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 2 K
Selvidge cruised through 3 innings but ran into a string of tough luck in the 4th that knocked him out of the game. Season: 3.40 ERA (47.2 IP, 36 H, 24 R, 18 ER, 3 HR, 23 BB, 49 K). After reducing his walk rate considerably in 2023, it has spiked thus far in 2024. 
RHP Ryan Anderson: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K
RHP Yorlin Calderon1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 0 K
RHP Jesus Liranzo1.1 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K
RHP Carlos Gomez1 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, HR


Hudson Valley (21-22)

They played on Memorial Day, so they had today off.


Tampa (18-27) (Their game against Palm Beach was suspended, tied 5-5, in the 5th inning. They will conclude this game tomorrow, followed by the regularly scheduled game)

2B George Lombard Jr.: 0-for-3
SS Roderick Arias0-for-3, RS, SB (12), 3 K

  C Edinson Duran0-for-0

RHP Luis Serna4 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 4 K
4.75 ERA (36 IP, 28 H, 19 R, 19 ER, 1 HR, 12 BB, 42 K). May: 24.2 IP, 14 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 0 HR, 5 BB, 26 K. Serna has allowed 3 home runs in 136.2 career innings. 
RHP Ocean Gabonia0.1 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 0 K


FCL (11-7) (Defeated the Blue Jays, 10-4, in a 9-inning game)

CF Brando Mayea2-for-4, 3B (1), 2 RS, SB (3), 2 BB, K
.346/.433/.423 in 30 PA. He has a 6-game hitting streak.
LF Christopher Familia1-for-2, 2B (1), RS, BB, K
For Familia, the FCL must feel like Little League to a high schooler.
  LF Brian Sanchez: 1-for-2, 3B (2), 2 RBI, RS, BB, K
7-game hitting streak. Imagine a world where the Yankees received two interesting prospects for Jake Bauers. By the way, Bauers is hitting .217/.308/.426 for the Brewers entering Tuesday’s action.
DH Edgleen Perez2-for-4, 2 RBI, RS, BB, K
6-game hitting streak and .350/.536/.500 in 56 PA overall.
C Josue Gonzalez0-for-5, 3 K
While his teammates are heating up, Gonzalez has cooled off. That’s how it goes.  He is hitting .204/.418/.510 in 67 PA.
2B Abrahan Ramirez2-for-3, RBI, RS, 2 BB, K
.318/.455/.477 in 56 PA. He plays mostly 2B/3B though he did get time in LF in 2023.
3B Luis Ogando1-for-4, HR (2; grand slam), 4 RBI, 2 RS, SB (3), 2 K
.226/.306/.452 in 36 PA.
SS Santiago Gomez2-for-3, RS, 3 SB (5), CS (2), 2 HBP, K
47-for-57 (82.5%) stealing bases in his career.
RF Fidel Montero1-for-4, SB (6), BB, 3 K

RHP Eric Reyzelman0.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K
The 5th-round pick in the 2022 draft is here on a rehab assignment. He is known for his elite fastball (reaches 100 MPH).
RHP Angel Benitez2 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 3 K
LHP Rafelin Nivar (W, 1-0): 3.1 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 3 K, HR
