Giancarlo Stanton to Return to New York Yankees for 2027 Season

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman confirmed designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton will remain with the team for the final year of his contract in 2027. New York remains on the hook for $15 million of his salary, while the Miami Marlins cover the remaining $10 million along with a 2028 buyout. Despite plans to grant Aaron Judge more DH rest, Stanton is expected to report to spring training in Tampa, though Cashman left open the possibility of midseason moves.
