There’s no timetable yet on Yankees star DH Giancarlo Stanton, who’s sidelined with painful tendon issues in both elbows and undergoing testing they’re characterizing as unrelated back in New York. But with Stanton unable to do any baseball activity and in New York, it seems very unlikely he’ll be ready for Opening Day and could possibly be out for weeks.
Best wishes to Stanton, one of the game’s best guys.
There’s been some contact with J.D. Martinez. But it might be hard to figure out how to bring him in as a stopgap player because there’s surely hope and expectation for Stanton to return.
Highly regarded Yankees prospect Spencer Jones, with his great speed power combo, isn’t a candidate to make the team yet. The deep-thinking Jones (Vanderbilt) revamped his swing and is still seen as “in development.”
