Giancarlo Stanton's Elbow Injury Is "Severe"
1 month 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.
