We lost out on Yamamato, but that doesn't mean we can't have some fun. What is your ideal lineup when Dominguez returns?
Here's mine:
Against RHP:
1. Verdugo LF (L)
2. Judge RF (R)
3. Soto DH (L)
4. Torres 2B (R)
5. Rizzo 1B (L)
6. LeMahieu 3B (R)
7. Dominguez CF (S)
8. Wells C (L)
9. Volpe SS (R)
Against LHP: 1. LeMahieu 3B (R) 2. Judge LF (R) 3. Soto RF (L) 4. Torres 2B (R) 5. Dominguez (S) 6. Stanton DH (R) 7. Rizzo 1B (L) 8. Volpe SS (R) 9. Wells C (L)

Against RH Dominguez CF Judge RF Soto DH Rizzo 1B Torres 2b Verdigo LF DJL 3B Wells C Volpe SS Against LH DJL 3B Judge LF Soto RF Dominguez CF Rizzo 1B Stanton DH Torres 2b Volpe SS Trevino C I really wanted to put Dominguez at lead-off like you did but I figured to let him come back slowly. I see no reason why he can't lead off though if he hits like he did last year. Volpe also has the potential to be a great lead-off man if he fulfills his potential.

And Judge likes hitting second, so bat Soto right after the big guy. I think the lineups will change all the time just because of the Yankees obsession with resting players. One thing for me is that I wouldn't play Verdugo and I hope Wells gets a majority of the playing time at catcher.

Not what the players ideal line up was.

Here’s a sneaky thought. Lead off with Soto…
