Giancarlo Stanton has been shut down for weeks dealing with soreness in both of his elbows, and the Yankees are still unsure when they’re getting their DH back. Aaron Boone spoke with reporters following the team’s 4-0 loss to the Tigers and when asked about the slugger’s potential timetable for starting up baseball activities again, he responded by saying nothing was imminent at the moment.
Without Stanton’s presence in the lineup, the Yankees will lose some serious home run power, which could be an issue given the loss of Juan Soto this winter.
