NEW YORK — Thumbs up for Jasson Domínguez. After sitting out for a few games with a left thumb contusion — an injury the Yankees’ young outfielder suffered on Sunday night in Los Angeles — Domínguez is clear to return to the team’s starting lineup on Thursday night.

Jasson Domínguez was on the Yankees’ bench yet again Wednesday against the Guardians, but that won’t be the case for much longer.

Aaron Boone described the injury as “just a couple of days thing,” and noted it has been improving daily. That’s a relief for a Yankees club with postseason aspirations and a lineup that increasingly leans on Dominguez’s maturing offensive presence.
