It’s safe to say New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton experienced what can be defined as a “lost season” in 2019. The veteran only played in 18 games this year, battling injuries to his biceps, shoulder, calf, and knee.
The slugger is now active though and actually played in nine of the team’s final 10 regular-season games. Stanton’s with the ballclub heading into their upcoming American League Division Series matchup with the Minnesota Twins. And, despite the injury-plagued past, Bombers manager Aaron Boone is confident in his veteran outfielder.
Aaron Boone explains why he's confident in Giancarlo Stanton coming into the postseason despite having just come back from injury pic.
