Jasson Dominguez's injury tests came back clean, showing no serious issues.
Anthony Volpe is currently continuing his rehabilitation process.

However, it appears that the young outfielder is officially in the clear.
Boone told reporters pregame Friday that Dominguez's CT scan came back clean, and the hope is that he'll be available off the bench for the series opener.
Dominguez was seen doing baseball activities before Boone spoke.
That's certainly encouraging news for the Yankees, as the 23-year-old was expected to take on a big role in his return to the big leagues with Giancarlo Stanton on the IL.
He had just one hit in nine at-bats prior to the injury departure.
The Yankees will not have Anthony Volpe back for the weekend set with the O's.
There was a chance he'd be deemed ready to return, but instead, he'll continue on his rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset through the weekend.
Volpe's 20-day clock expires on Sunday, so the team will either have to activate him from the IL on Monday or option him back down to the minors.
The shortstop has now taken a total of 33 at-bats on his rehab assignment, and he's enjoyed a decent amount of success, hitting .303 with a homer and three RBI.
He's appeared in the field in all 10 games and has only committed one error.
Volpe isn't the only injured Yankee who will continue on his rehab assignment, as both Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodon are set to make another minor league appearance this week.
Both are set to take the mound Tuesday night in two different levels of the system.
The current plan is for Rodon to be with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, and there's a chance that this could be his final outing before rejoining the big league rotation.
The lefty threw 75 pitches across 5.1 strong innings on Thursday night.
Cole, on the other hand, remains a bit further away and he'll throw with Hudson Valley.
He allowed three runs on three hits, two of which were homers, while stretching out to 60 pitches during his third rehab appearance in the second game of Somerset's Wednesday doubleheader.
