Giancarlo Stanton Enters Winter Healthy Despite Lost Season

Yankees GM Brian Cashman and manager Aaron Boone addressed Giancarlo Stanton's future after a lost season limited by two calf strains to just 24 games. Stanton hit .256 with an OPS of .724, three home runs, and 14 RBI. While the Yankees owe him $25 million for 2027, Cashman expressed optimism about his health entering the winter, though noting the DH spot faces competition. Stanton made Wild Card and ALDS rosters, striking out in two pinch-hit at-bats as the team evaluates its upcoming roster.
