12 months agoNew York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton will start on the bench on Wednesday for the series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks. With Stanton getting a breather, Aaron Judge will serve as the DH and bat third, while Trent Grisham will get the start in center field and hit in the nine-hole against Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly. Stanton has gotten off to a slow start at the plate for the Yankees in the first five games of the 2024 season, going just 3-for-20 (.150) with a solo home run, a double, two runs scored and 11 strikeouts in his first 21 plate appearances. Judge will be looking for his first career hit against Kelly (he's had just two at-bats against him), while Grisham is currently hitting .182 in 22 career at-bats against Kelly.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 week agoNew York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton's (elbow) injury is considered "severe" in both elbows. Stanton noted that this injury could have been caused by "bat adjustments." Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status, but he is still unsure when he will resume baseball activities. Given this update, Stanton may be sidelined for a significant period during the 2025 regular season. Bryan Hoch of MLB.com noted that if surgery would be needed, it would be season-ending. Last season, the 35-year-old appeared in 114 contests and held a .233/.298/.475 slash line with 20 doubles and 27 home runs. He generated an elite 20.7 percent barrel rate and a 55.3 percent hard-hit rate which placed him in the 99th and 98th percentile among qualified hitters. If Stanton were to miss a majority of the regular season, the Yankees will likely have several players move to the designated hitter spot throughout the season.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

1 week agoNew York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) will return to New York City for a third round of platelet-rich plasma injections in both of his elbows on Monday, according to the team. Stanton just returned to camp with the team in Florida but will now head back to New York because he's still not ready to resume baseball activities. The 35-year-old right-handed slugger has already been ruled out for Opening Day later this month and has no timetable for when he'll even resume swinging a bat. He's been dealing with tennis elbow in both of his arms since last year, although he was able to battle through it and go on a tear at the plate last postseason, mainly in the American League Championship Series against Cleveland. Stanton provides fantasy managers plenty of power but little else, and the injury concerns are mounting. His ADP is dropping daily.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 week agoNew York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) is back in camp with the team, but manager Aaron Boone said it's doubtful that he will play in any Grapefruit League games. We already know that Stanton will open the 2025 regular season on the injured list, so it's not much of a surprise that he won't play in any games this spring while dealing with tennis elbow in both of his arms, something he's dealt with since last season. The 35-year-old veteran slugger has already received two rounds of platelet-rich plasma injections in his elbows to try to alleviate his issues, but he still has no timetable for a return to baseball activities, let alone game action. For an aging player with a lengthy injury history that really only provides fantasy value because of his light-tower power, Stanton has become a very risky fantasy selection in 2025.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoNew York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) had a second round of platelet-rich plasma injections in New York and is expected to rejoin the team in spring training camp in Florida this weekend, according to general manager Brian Cashman. However, Cashman also said Stanton won't be able to do much in terms of baseball activities. The 35-year-old veteran right-handed slugger is dealing with tennis elbow in both of his elbows and has already ruled out for Opening Day later this month. The question now is how soon will he be able to restart baseball activities and get himself prepared for making his 2025 season debut. Already an injury-prone slugger that doesn't provide much else for fantasy managers besides power, Stanton's fantasy draft stock is falling by the day with no timetable for a return.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
