    The Yankees fired longtime international scouting director Donny Rowland earlier this offseason, according to baseball reporter Francys Romero.<\/p>\n

    Brendan Kuty of The Athletic spoke to sources that pointed to the Yankees\u2019 recent struggles to turn major signings into impact players as a contributing factor in the firing.<\/p>\n

    One of the more talked about of those cases was when they gave outfielder Jasson Dom\u00ednguez an organization-record $5.1 million signing bonus. He began 2025 as a starter but finished as a part-time player, hitting .257 with 10 home runs and 47 RBI.<\/p>\n

    Rowland, 62, had been with the Yankees for 23 years, 15 of which he spent as their international scouting director.<\/p>\n

    According to Kuty, the Yankees are still in the process of choosing Rowland\u2019s replacement.<\/p>\n
