New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton received a second round of platelet-rich plasma injections on Thursday to continue accelerating the healing process in his injured elbows, according to general manager Brian Cashman.
Stanton, 35, is expected to rejoin the Yankees in Tampa this weekend, but likely will not engage in baseball activities. Asked why the tendinitis wasn't addressed during the offseason, Cashman explained that Stanton didn't say he was having difficulty until shortly before reporting to spring training.
"The complaints didn’t come up until right before camp," Cashman said, via MLB.
