Injuries have plagued baseball in 2023. The New York Yankees’ season has been derailed by a string of them. The baseball gods keep smiting them, this time with Nestor Cortes Jr. and now with Anthony Rizzo. Will the latest Jasson Dominguez ιnjury bring the club to its knees, despite the fact that they managed to play without their captain for two months?

As soon as Aaron Judge went down with a broken toe at Dodger Stadium, the season was doomed. The front desk saw him coming back in top shape and decided to send some Baby Bombers to play with him. However, a rookie for the Yankees is in the same boat as Judge’s competitor from the West Coast, Shohei Ohtani, who has suffered an ιnjury that will stop his season.

In sports, a ‘UCL tear’ is as terrifying to a player as it is to a viewer, as it almost always signifies that the player will need Tommy John surgery. It’s serious enough to have major surgery and will take at least six months to recover from. Shohei Ohtani, a superstar for the Angels, tore his UCL in late August, and the club has now stated that he will not pitch again this season. Dominguez has also completed his final game of the season.The arrival of the switch-hitting savior gave the rest of the season new hope. ‘The Martian’ lived up to his nаme by being the youngest player since 1900 to Һit a home run in four of his first seven AL/NL games. But now his ambitions have been cruelly destroyed since he has joined baseball’s unicorn on a list no one hoped to see him on.

According to a message by Twitter user @Yankeelibrarian: “The Yankees have had a lot of lows, but Jasson Dominguez tearing his UCL has to be the worst thing to happen in 2023.” Fans have been angry at the Bronx squad all year, and this occurrence further adds to the perception that they are cursed.

Although Bryce Harper returned to action in just five and a half months, the recommended time span is six months. Aaron Boone, manager of the New York Yankees, estimates that Jasson will need at least eight to nine months to fully recover. If this holds true, Dominguez won’t play until after the All-Star break of 2024, missing the first half of the season.
