Giancarlo Stanton Will Make His Spring Training Debut on Tuesday
New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) is set to see his first action of Spring Training on Tuesday when the Yankees face off against Panama. He will bat fourth as the designated hitter as he begins his ramp-up to Opening Day. Stanton is still dealing with tennis elbow issues in both arms, but his goal is to be ready for a full season despite the issue. Last season, Stanton didn't play his first game until June 16 due to the problem, but he was effective once he debuted, hitting 24 homers in 77 games with a .273 batting average, .321 ISO, and .395 wOBA. If he plays a full season while managing his injury, he brings good power potential, although his health will definitely be something to monitor leading up to the start of the season.
