As Packs said, I think that says more about Boone than Dominguez. Dominguez should have been in the starting line-up in the postseason rather than the pitiful Verdugo - Dominguez has looked good in the majors overall and he did very well in AAA this year. But Boone for whatever reason decided he'd stay loyal to Verdugo and keep Dominguez on the bench to the bitter end.

Dominguez won't make anyone forget about Mickey Mantle, but I think he'll be good.
