Jasson Domnguez leads the charge in Yankees final spring training win

Spring training is over! The Yankees wrapped up the exhibition portion of their season with a big win over the Cubs down in Arizona 83 is your 's talk about it so we can turn our attention to the stuff that will matter in pursuit of Cole had a power pitcher's outing today, striking out Pete CrowArmstrong and Michael Busch to start the game, Alex Bregman took him deep, and then sitting down Ian Happ to end the first would get two outs in the second before being replaced by Harrison Cohen ???, for a total of 2pitches, 17 of them strikes, a crisp 65 percent strike we don't have video of his outing, Statcast still tracks nontelevised was red hot in the first Trent Grisham Jersey, sitting 96mph and getting it up to 98, before taking a little off in the second and sitting 9495.I said in the gamethread that this phase of Cole's rehab is built around balancing his velocity and command, and I think that's reflected in how he approached his start first inning was proof positive that his fastball can still pop, which is encouraging to see given how hard he was throwing in his first Grapefruit League game last second inning was briefer just four pitches but the pitch plots and tick down in velocity indicates to me he was trying to locate better, and two outs off contact help show that side of his recovery seems to be going Yankees got that Bregman dinger back quickly, with Jasson Domnguez appearing eager to win back a roster spot on the bigleague Martian singled to lead off the second, stole a base, advanced on a groundout and came home on Ryan McMahon's sac fly, a nice bit of Big Fundamental baseball and a hustle run that will help him get more MLB time at some point in nguez followed that up a couple innings later with a more traditional source of offense, as he and Randal Grichuk hit backtoback solo shots in the Rice had given the club the lead an inning earlier, blasting his second home run of spring in a highlight that probably would have been cool to just a.771 OPS Rice hasn't had the best results in Grapefruit League play, but he's still one of the players I'm most looking forward to watching when the games count for in the rotation Ryan Weathers also had himself a decent enough day, working five innings and allowing just a solo home run to Miguel managed four strikeouts over that stretch, and after a bit of a rough patch in camp Roger Clemens Jersey, he ended exhibition play on a high note and we can be reasonably optimistic that this fourman rotation to open the year will be able to hold bench option Amed Rosario added on to the lead, driving in a pair of runs in the sixth on the back of two Duke Ellis stolen is the last time I'll have to give spring training caveats for an entire year, but it does feel as though the Yankees, at the MLB level and within the org, present more threats on the bases than we've seen in years Jones also swiped a bag, his fourth of himself was brought around on an RBI double off Paul DeJong's boys in the dugout now go their separate ways, some heading to San Francisco, some Scranton or Somerset or real work begins tomorrow Elston Howard Jersey, and we'll have plenty of coverage ahead of Opening Day against the Giants remember, first pitch is at 8:05pm Eastern, exclusively on Score.
