Giancarlo Stanton is set to begin a rehab assignment in Double-A, but the Boomer and Gio crew are already taking bets on what the oft-injured slugger’s next ailment will be.
Stanton is a force in the Yankee lineup and pivotal to their success, as he has shown in the playoffs since coming to New York, but he hasn’t had a healthy season since his first in the Bronx back in 2018. So, as he works his way back from a hamstring injury, the guys are just waiting for whatever will be the next injury that causes the 2022 All-Star to miss time.
Here are the picks:
Jerry: Back spasms
Gio: Quad
Boomer: Calf
Al: Groin
Eddie: Oblique
Gio could have said Stanton will reaggravate his hamstring injury, but he wanted to mix things up.
“Really, going hamstring again would be the best bet,” Gio said. “But it’s gonna happen, a next Giancarlo Stanton injury.”
