Jasson Dominguez has yet to play in a professional baseball game since signing with the Yankees in 2019, but the hype for the teenage sensation is reaching an apex.
Dominguez, who turned 18 earlier this month, is “more advanced” than Mike Trout was at his age, according to Kiley McDaniel, author of ESPN’s top 100 MLB prospects list.
“You can kind of pick whatever name you want. Technically, (Dominguez is) more advanced than Trout was at the same age because Trout went, what was it, [25th] overall as an 18-year-old, and this guy is not 18 yet and he was considered the best 16-year-old in the world a year ago, and he’s probably still the best 17-year-old,” McDaniel said last week on a conference call.
