The Yankees’ left field competition is set to begin on Monday with the first full-squad workout, and Giancarlo Stanton looms as a wild card.
is set to begin on Monday with the first full-squad workout, and Giancarlo Stanton looms as a wild card.
Stanton started 38 games in the outfield last season and 26 in 2021. But most of those starts came in right field, and of his combined 14 starts in left field, none were at Yankee Stadium, because of its spacious dimensions at the position. Asked whether Stanton could play left field at Yankee Stadium — something he hasn’t done since 2019 — Boone was noncommittal. “We’ll see about that,” he said. “And I might get a little creative there, too. We’ll see how that shakes out.
“He’s working on shortening some things up [with his swing], making some adjustments, which are inevitable over the course of a career,” Boone said. “So physically he’s in a good space and I think mentally he’s ready to go and excited to be here to compete.”
