How much do the Yankees really believe in Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones?
The answer will come in how aggressively they pursue the outfield market this offseason.
Because the only sure thing in their outfield next season is Aaron Judge in right field — assuming his right elbow continues to recover as expected, that is. And if the Yankees want to keep one spot open for Domínguez, they certainly can, while saving another for Jones might be a bit premature.
The immediate future for both young outfielders is tied into that of the two Yankees outfielders headed for free agency, Cody Bellinger and Trent Grisham. Bellinger is set to opt out of the final year and $25 million left on his contract, while Grisham, coming off the best year of his career, might have made himself a candidate to receive the qualifying offer, which is expected to be around $22 million.
