After losing the first two games against the Minnesota Twins, the New York Yankees managed to salvage the series, winning the final two contests and extending their streak to start the year, having not lost a series.
Thanks to a tremendous performance courtesy of Gerrit Cole, the Yankees were able to rest their bullpen and walk away with an easy win, enjoying an off day Monday before taking on the Los Angeles Angels.
However, the team learned some tough news over the weekend, specifically regarding Giancarlo Stanton.
The Yankees will be without Stanton for quite some time:
Stanton had an MRI on Sunday that revealed a Grade 2 hamstring strain, which should keep him out for a minimum of 4–6 weeks, if not more, given how severe lower leg injuries have been for him in the past.
