Top Giancarlo Stanton News

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Not in Tuesday's lineup

    Stanton is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

    Stanton started the previous four games and will sit Tuesday after he went 5-for-15 with two doubles and two homers during that span. Aaron Judge will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Trent Grisham starts in center field.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Slugs another long ball Saturday

    Stanton went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, a walk and two total RBI in Saturday's 6-1 win against the White Sox.

    Stanton doubled home a run in the first inning and added a solo homer in the third. The long ball was his second in as many days and his third over his past four games. Stanton is enjoying a big month of May, slashing .308/.333/.654 with five homers and 10 RBI through 13 games, though he's also struck out 35.2 percent of the time.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Mashes homer No. 10

    Stanton went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's 4-2 win over the White Sox.

    He crushed a Tanner Banks fastball down the left-field line on the first pitch he saw to lead off the sixth inning. Stanton has stayed healthy so far this season and is already at 10 long balls through 39 games, giving him a shot at his first 40-homer campaign since 2017 if he can avoid lengthy injury absences. His 33.5 percent strikeout rate -- which would be the worst mark of his career if it doesn't come down -- indicates how one-dimensional the 34-year-old has become at this stage of his career, however.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Hitting bench in series finale

    Stanton is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.

    Stanton will get a breather for the day game after a night game, ceding his spot in the lineup to Trent Grisham, who will man center field while Aaron Judge slots into Stanton's usual role at designated hitter. After making 33 starts in the corner outfield in 2023, Stanton has been deployed exclusively at DH through the first quarter of the 2024 season. Given Stanton's lengthy injury history, the Yankees will likely look to keep him in a non-defensive role so long as the likes of Judge, Juan Soto and Alex Verdugo all maintain health.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Hits monster homer

    Stanton went 2-for-5 with a solo home run during Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Twins.

    Stanton launched a 427-foot homer in the third inning off Chris Paddack for his ninth long ball of 2024. The 34-year-old still owns a huge 34 percent strikeout rate, but he's also carrying a .236 batting average and is slugging .471 -- both would be his best tallies since 2021. Stanton has hit safely in eight of his last nine games.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Getting breather Saturday

    Stanton is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Stanton went 2-for-4 in the series opener Friday. Trent Grisham will start in center field while Aaron Judge shifts to DH against Rays right-hander Zack Littell.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Goes deep Wednesday

    Stanton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 9-4 win against Houston.

    Stanton hit one of three homers for New York in the victory, taking Spencer Arrighetti deep for a 447-foot solo blast in the third inning. It was the second straight game with a long ball for the slugger, and he extended his modest hitting streak to five games. Stanton has struck out 10 times in 20 at-bats over that stretch, so he's far from locked in at the plate, but three of his five hits during the streak have gone for extra bases.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Getting breather Thursday

    Stanton is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Baltimore, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Stanton is getting Thursday off after he went 1-for-10 with a 3:2 K:BB in the first three games of the series. Aaron Judge will get a day out of the outfield and will replace Stanton as the Yankees' designated hitter.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Clubs sixth homer

    Stanton went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run during Saturday's 15-3 win at Milwaukee.

    The veteran slugger entered Saturday without a homer in eight straight games, but he went deep in the ninth inning against position player Owen Miller. Stanton also had an infield single in the opening frame but struck out in his other three plate appearances, which is his second game this season with three strikeouts. Even including Saturday's homer, Stanton has a .214/.290/.393 slash line over his past nine games.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Resting Saturday

    Stanton isn't in the Yankees' lineup for Saturday's game against Tampa Bay.

    Stanton turned in an 0-for-4 performance at the plate during Friday's victory over the Rays, and he'll get a breather during Saturday's contest. Aaron Judge will take over as New York's designated hitter, allowing Trent Grisham to start in center field and bat sixth.
