After the New York Yankees beat the Washington Nationals in a rain-shortened game Monday afternoon, Aaron Boone announced that Giancarlo Stanton would be shut down with a grade one calf strain.
This is Stanton’s sixth injury in just over two years in New York, and will likely begin the season on the IL. The injury gives Clint Frazier an opportunity he’s been looking for.
The expectation was originally that Frazier would break camp with the Railriders. But, with the Stanton injury, it seems that he could break with the big league club.
