Domingo Germán Polanco (born August 4, 1992) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball (MLB).

Career

Germán was signed by the Florida Marlins as an international free agent in 2009. He made his professional debut in 2010 for the Dominican Summer League Marlins. Germán played the 2014 season with the Greensboro Grasshoppers, going 9–3 with a 2.48 earned run average (ERA) and 113 strikeouts.[1] In July he was selected to play in the All-Star Futures Game and recorded two strikeouts in the game.[2][3][4]

On December 19, 2014, the Marlins traded Germán, Nathan Eovaldi, and Garrett Jones to the New York Yankees for Martín Prado and David Phelps.[5] He missed the 2015 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, and was non-tendered after the season, removing him from the 40-man roster. The Yankees resigned Germán to a minor league contract during the offseason.[6] They re-added him to their 40-man roster after the 2016 season.[7]

The Yankees promoted Germán to the major leagues on June 10, 2017.[8] He made his major league debut the next day against the Baltimore Orioles. Germán pitched 2 23 scoreless innings of relief, allowing two hits while walking one and striking out one.
