Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images | Jerome Miron-Imagn Images There haven’t been a whole bunch of health issues with the Yankees this season, but the last few days haven’t been so kind. Jasson Domínguez, playing in just his third game of the season after being recalled to replace the injured Giancarlo Stanton as the team’s primary DH, was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Texas Rangers with a left elbow injury. The Martian, who was getting a game in left field so that Aaron Judge could get a DH day, was taking his second at-bat in the fourth inning when an 89.1-mph cutter by Nathan Eovaldi ran in and hit him in the left elbow. Head athletic trainer Tim Lentych checked him, and he initially stayed in to take first base, but was immediately removed on defense for Max Schuemann in the bottom half of the inning. The timing couldn’t be worse, as the Yankees designated for assignment to recall rookie Elmer Rodríguez for today’s start. In the case that Domínguez needs to go on the injured list, it is technically possible for Grichuk to be re-added to the roster if he clears waivers, but that’s not guaranteed to be the course of action if needed.
