Giancarlo Stanton Fantasy Stats

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton slugged the team to an 8-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Stanton crushed a pair of two-run homers, both off ace left-hander Trevor Rogers, and racked up five RBI during a 2-for-5 night. His third-inning bomb to left-center field came off the bat at 112.2 mph and traveled 451 feet. Remarkably, entering Friday, Rogers had only given up three HRs in his prior 17 starts this season. Stanton nearly equaled that total in one night, and with 452 homers, he's now tied with Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski for 40th on the all-time list. During a renaissance season, the 35-year-old has slashed .267/.342/.584 with 23 long balls, 64 RBI, and 35 runs scored in 74 games and 273 trips to the plate.

New York Yankees designated hitter/outfielder Giancarlo Stanton became the 41st player in major league history to reach the 450-home run mark on Saturday and helped his team to a 6-1 win over the Baltimore Orioles. Stanton hit a three-run, opposite-field shot off right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano in the first inning to give the Yankees a lead they wouldn't relinquish. The 35-year-old passed Hall of Famers Vladimir Guerrero and Jeff Bagwell on the all-time HR list in the process. After going 1-for-3 with a walk on Saturday, Stanton is slashing a robust .268/.341/.575 with 21 homers, 56 RBI, and 33 runs scored over 70 games and 256 plate appearances this season. While Stanton has tallied four dingers and 10 RBI in September, he has gone just 10-for-55 (.182) with 28 strikeouts and four walks this month.

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. This appears to be a routine rest day for Stanton who has started in each of the last three games. During that span, Stanton went 3-for-12 with two RBI and a run scored. Aaron Judge will slide over to the designated hitter role and bat third versus right-hander Taj Bradley on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly ahead of first pitch.

New York Yankees designated hitter/outfielder Giancarlo Stanton isn't in the lineup against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday. Aaron Judge will DH and hit third versus right-hander Brayan Bello, Cody Bellinger will play right field and bat cleanup, and Jasson Dominguez will man left and occupy the No. 6 spot in the order. Stanton will take a seat amid an early September slump. The 35-year-old has gone just 5-for-33 (.152) in nine games this month, though he has clubbed three home runs. Stanton has 20 homers in 231 plate appearances this season, and he owns a strong .272/.348/.592 line with 49 RBI and 31 runs scored.

New York Yankees designated hitter/outfielder Giancarlo Stanton will take a seat on Saturday against Chicago White Sox right-hander Shane Smith. The Yankees will go with Cody Bellinger (right field) and Jasson Dominguez (left) as their corner outfielders, while Aaron Judge will DH. Stanton is sitting after starting back-to-back games in right field. The Yankees will have to continue choosing when to play the 35-year-old and when to rest him until Judge can reclaim his spot in the outfield. Judge has been a full-time DH since he suffered a flexor strain in his right elbow in late July, and while he has made progress, there's still no timetable for him to return to right in a game. Unless Judge regains full health this year, the Yankees will occasionally have to bench Stanton, who has been on a tear in 2025. The former NL MVP has slashed .300/.374/.635 with 17 homers, 46 RBI, and 28 runs scored in 191 plate appearances.

New York Yankees designated hitter/outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is starting in right field and batting fourth on Saturday against the Boston Red Sox. Stanton did not start his team's game on Friday night, but came in as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and struck out. The 35-year-old is having an excellent season, slashing .301/.382/.621 with 15 home runs and 40 RBI in 173 plate appearances. However, with Aaron Judge limited to designated hitter duties while he plays through a flexor strain, Stanton does not have an everyday spot in the Yankees' starting lineup.

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (lower body) will return to the lineup and play right field against the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday, manager Aaron Boone told Talkin' Yanks. The Yankees will then give Stanton a breather in Wednesday's series finale. With Aaron Judge unable to play the outfield as he recovers from a flexor strain in his right elbow, Stanton lined up in the grass from Monday to Wednesday last week. However, he was out of the lineup for the Yankees' past three games as a result of lower-body soreness. Until Judge's injury, Stanton hadn't played the outfield since 2023. It's not ideal for the Yankees to use Stanton in right, but if they want to keep the 35-year-old's bat in the lineup, they don't have any other choice until Judge can return to the outfield. After missing the first two and a half months of the season with elbow issues, Stanton made his debut June 16 and has slashed a sensational .299/.377/.576 with 12 homers, 34 RBI, and 20 runs scored in 162 plate appearances.

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (lower body) was out of the lineup for the third straight game Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals as he deals with lower-body soreness. Stanton is feeling the effects of playing the outfield three games in a row earlier this week, according to Greg Joyce of the New York Post, but manager Aaron Boone doesn't expect him to require a stint on the 10-day injured list. "No, no, no," Boone said. "I don't see that at all." Until recently, Stanton hadn't lined up in the outfield since 2023. However, with Aaron Judge only capable of serving as a DH right now as he recovers from a flexor strain in his right elbow, Stanton has suited up in right field as a way to keep his bat in the lineup. The 35-year-old slugger said that he is "available to pinch-hit," but he and Boone aren't willing to commit to a return to the outfield when the Yankees open up a series against Tampa Bay on Tuesday. Unless Judge is ready to play the outfield in that game, which looks unlikely, Stanton may be on the bench again despite owning a fantastic .299/.373/.576 line with 12 home runs and 34 RBI in 161 plate appearances.

New York Yankees outfielder/first baseman Cody Bellinger and designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton are out of the lineup Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Jasson Dominguez will play left field and hit fifth in a meeting with right-hander Sonny Gray, while Ben Rice will handle first base and bat second. Aaron Judge still isn't ready to return to the outfield after coming back from a flexor strain in his right elbow on Aug. 5, so he'll DH and hit third. Jose Caballero will play right field and bat ninth. To keep Stanton's sizzling bat in the lineup, the Yankees have started him in right four times, including three games in a row earlier this week. However, they held him out on Friday and will do so again on Saturday. Before Judge's injury, Stanton hadn't played defense since 2023, so the Yankees would prefer to avoid using him in the outfield.

New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is getting his first start in the outfield this season on Saturday against the Houston Astros. Stanton has not appeared in a big-league game in the outfield since 2023. However, with Aaron Judge currently limited to designated hitter duties while he plays through a right flexor strain, the Yankees have been prepping Stanton for defensive work. In 142 plate appearances so far this season, Stanton is slashing .268/.345/.528 with 10 home runs, 28 RBI, and 18 runs scored. The 35-year-old is unlikely to play every day in the field, so his playing time could remain spotty as long as Judge is only able to DH. With Stanton in the lineup on Saturday, Cody Bellinger will shift from right field to left field, and Jasson Dominguez will hit the bench.
