Jasson Dominguez’s current struggles could lead to a long-term benefit. 

The Yankees are banking on it. 

Rated the No. 1 prospect in the team’s organization, Dominguez has been somewhat worryingly inconsistent at the plate this season with Double-A Somerset.

Nicknamed “The Martian,” Dominguez entered Friday night slashing a very-Earthly .198/.344/.369 with a .714 OPS, 10 home runs and 37 RBIs.

He also entered the Patriots’ matchup with the New Hampshire River Cats with one hit in his last 19 at-bats and 12 strikeouts.

After raking during spring training, the 20-year-old Dominguez put himself in position to get called-up and join the Yankees’ outfield at some point this season.

His disappointing Double-A season has likely slowed that conversation, however. 

But there may be a silver lining. 

“The one thing that’s been a little bit different [this year], each team is going to attack him with something new,” Somerset Patriots hitting coach Jake Hirst told The Post. “Everybody has kind of had a different approach to Jasson Dominguez. Long-term, that’s gonna make him a more robust and a more prepared player. 

“It’s just responding to the game and responding to how other teams and other pitchers are going to attack him. I think the positive with him is that he’s taken that in stride. His ability to stay calm throughout that process is great.” 

Dominguez has had mixed success throughout his minor league career, at times flashing his tantalizing potential and other times – perhaps too often – showing how much room he still has to develop. 

It’s Dominguez’s five-tool ability that has the Yankees and fans salivating.

But his proficiency at the plate is how he first commanded attention, and it’s currently his greatest struggle. 

Dominguez and Hirst have identified several areas they’re honing in on to get back on track. 

“He’s done a good job of understanding he needs to control the zone better,” Hirst said. “He needs to be more aggressive on get-me-over breaking balls and maybe be a little bit more selective on fastballs above the zone, or backfoot breaking balls, or things like that.” 

Although Dominguez’s hitting has been up-and-down, he’s found pivotal consistency in other areas. 

And it’s been the key to his rise. 

“The tools are obviously one thing, but I think just the consistency that he brings every day from such a young age has always been really impressive to me,” Hirst said.

“I think whether things are going really well in the game or things could be going better, he’s the same guy in the cage every day. He’s the same guy in the clubhouse every day. Super consistent, super easy-going, fun-loving, just wants to have fun and be a positive energy around the clubhouse.”
