The Yankees' general manager explains

Domínguez, a top prospect, will play in the outfield instead of shortstop

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has explained his controversial decision to move top prospect Jasson Domínguez from shortstop to the outfield.

He also said that Domínguez's speed and athleticism would be better utilized in the outfield.

Domínguez's reaction

Domínguez has said that he is disappointed with the decision but that he respects the Yankees' decision.

He said that he is willing to work hard to become a successful outfielder.

The Yankees' future

The Yankees are still high on Domínguez and believe that he has a bright future.

They believe that he can be a star in the outfield and help the Yankees win a World Series.

Only time will tell if the Yankees made the right decision, but it is clear that they believe in Domínguez's potential.
