Giancarlo Stanton’s latest injury update has brought devastating news for the New York Yankees. Fans were upset after Stanton’s setback, but his latest update has worsened. It turns out that the Yankees’ World Series run is questionable after suffering many injuries.

Stanton was set to miss opening day due to severe pain in his elbows. After examining things, the Yankees are expecting a season-ending injury. Stanton might be required to undergo surgery. With the regular season just around the corner, it’s hard for him to return this year.

Stanton has not swung a bat in a long time. The All-Star has missed spring training and the Yankees need to find their replacement. If Giancarlo Stanton has to undergo surgery, the Yankees are in trouble. Surgery will be his last resort, as Stanton hopes that his third round of PRP injections will get him back in the lineup.

When asked about his return timeline, Stanton said:

“I’m not too sure. It is considered severe in both elbows, so I’m gonna get to a point with pain tolerance and go from there.”

Yankees Desperately Need To Fill In Giancarlo Stanton’s Position

The Yankees do not have a veteran designated hitter. While they have options like Jasson Dominguez, it’s still hard to replace Stanton. The postseason will not be the same without Stanton in the lineup.

It’s a challenging situation in the Bronx, as injuries make things worse for the team. Recently, Gerrit Cole was sidelined, and Yankees fans are devastated. Luis Gil is on the IL, and now Stanton. The Yankees are without Juan Soto, and the burden is falling on Aaron Judge again.

Judge will need to carry his team forward, but the most concerning part is their pitching rotation. The Bronx Bombers will have no option but to turn to Dominguez. The Yanks might need to bring in some minor-league players and take desperate measures. Another option for the team is to consider trading for Nolan Arenado. However, Yankees fans hope for Giancarlo Stanton to return healthy.
