Giancarlo Stanton Is Back in the Yankees' Lineup While Aaron Judge's Status Remains Unchanged

Giancarlo Stanton’s ability to play outfield hinges on his physical readiness as Yankees manage injuries during a crucial late-season push, with next test Tuesday against the Rays.

  • Giancarlo Stanton returned to the New York Yankees' lineup on Tuesday night to play right field against the Tampa Bay Rays in Tampa, Florida.
  • Stanton missed three games due to general soreness and required additional rest following a stretch of five straight days with four starts in right field.
  • Aaron Judge is currently limited to designated hitter duties as he deals with a right elbow flexor injury, and there is no definite timeline for when he will be able to return to playing in the field.
  • The Yankees hold a 67-57 record and currently lead the season series against the Rays 7-4. Over this span, Tampa Bay’s offense has struggled, posting the lowest batting average in the league at.220 and scoring an average of just 3.5 runs per game.
  • Stanton playing right field until Judge returns maintains lineup strength as the Yankees compete for the AL East and wild card with pivotal upcoming games versus the Rays and Red Sox.
