Estevan Florial Stats

The New York Yankees officially placed outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez (elbow) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Sept. 10) with a right UCL tear on Monday and selected the contract of outfielder Estevan Florial from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move. Florial will return to the majors after impressing at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2023, as he slashed .284/.380/.565 with a .945 OPS, 28 home runs, 23 doubles, four triples, 79 RBI, 25 stolen bases and 83 runs scored in 101 games. However, the 25-year-old Dominican has hit just .185 (10-for-54) with a homer and 21 strikeouts in 63 plate appearances in his 30 MLB games over the last four years, so he won't be guaranteed regular playing time down the stretch in the Bronx.

New York Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday, per MLB.com's Bryan Hoch. The move is likely to clear a roster spot for Giancarlo Stanton (Achilles), who is expected to be activated from the injured list prior to Thursday's game at the Athletics. Florial has only had 22 plate appearances with the Yankees this season and slashed a miserable .050/.136/.050. The 24-year-old had been hitting well at Triple-A prior to his call-up, so he is still worth monitoring for fantasy managers in dynasty leagues.

New York Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays. After being called up recently to help with Giancarlo Stanton (Achilles) sidelined, Florial has struggled in his seven games. He has just one hit in 22 plate appearances with an RBI, run scored, a stolen base and eight strikeouts. Once Stanton returns, possibly later next week, the 24-year-old could be headed back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Aaron Hicks is in center field on Sunday and is hitting seventh against Blue Jays right-hander Alek Manoah. Hicks has been ice-cold with the bat in August, hitting .116 (5-for-43) with no homers, one RBI and 12 strikeouts in 13 games.
