Jiancarlo Stanton of Yankis activated, first to create vs. angels

New York – Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo stantton The injured list was restored on Monday so that its season could be started Los angels angelsThe club is giving a surplus of lineup options.

Stanton was sidelined through Sunday, both recalled the first 70 games of Yankis with tendon injuries in the elbow. He played through joint pain in 2024, including Postsen when he scored seven home runs in 14 games, but was shut down by swinging the bat by the end of March in January.

He will be the fifth position for Yankis on Monday.

Stanton, 35, was eligible for restoration from the 60-day injured list in late May, but Yankis was not desperate for crime and with several options for DH, did not return them. Stanton began a rehabilitation assignment last week, appearing in three games for the double-a Summerset after an extended period, carrying out the machines and taking it in live batting practice. He visited a double, four RBI, one walk and 3 -for -11 with three strikes for Somerset.

On Monday, he took a fray at the Yanki Stadium for an initial batting practice session against a high-speed machine in preparation for his debut.

The next 16 days have 16 games of Yankis, but the manager Aaron Boone does not expect Stanton, whose 429 career home runs leads all active players, to play every day. The availability of Stanton will partially depend on the recovery of the next day after a game.

“I think things can come from time to time and it can play in different things on a certain day if you think it is best to give him one day,” Bune said. “But I think they have built some good speed here in the last few months. The strength and such things have come back in a good way in their hands, so of course we will pay attention, but feel that we are in a very good place.”

The bug has a luxury to play on a safe side with a crime that concluded without a slogger. Yennaks entered the second place in Major with 123 WRC+ and .794 OPS on Monday I rice, Aron judge And Jason dominguase Cycling mainly through DH spots.

This is where things become complicated. Stanton's return, as it stands, offers a daily lineup puzzle to solve Boon – not only in DH slot, but in outfield where he has three players Judge Plus (Dominguase, Kodi Belinjar And Trent Grisham) For two spots (center area and left area). The decisions will come down mostly for the charge and matchup.

“I have talked to him, and we know what the goal is,” Bune said. “And right now it is to go to the playoffs and win and win a division and then clearly from there, trying to win and win a world series. Therefore, making sure that we have everyone on the same page and by-in.

Stanton's return is the most impact rice, which has started 43 out of 70 games of Yankeys as its DH. The second year player started batting on Monday. 227 12 domestic runs and a .771 with opes.

Boon reiterated on Monday that he sometimes plans to start rice in catcher to reduce logs and receive his bat more often in lineups.

The 26 -year -old Rice was designed as a catcher and spent most of his marginal league career behind the plate, but has yet to start in a position for Yankis since he started his leading league in the previous season. Rice played only 6⅔ innings behind the plate in Major.

Austin Wales And Jessie Escera This season is a divided time in catcher, in which Wales has started 52 of the team's 70 matches.

Boon said about rice, “I see him playing a lot.” “Again, just like matchups. As far as the catching component is concerned, I am planning to bring him back to some point. I don't know how many times it happens. Because, again, again, again, again, I really give importance to the value what Jessie has done there. As you have seen recently, I am getting his days, so I can take it back and I can take a little bit of things.”

Yenkis nominated the utility man Pablo Reece For assignment to create a room on active roster for Stantton.

Also on Monday, Boon asked the manufacturer of the right hand Jake cousin Tommy John is to undergo surgery on Wednesday.

Cousin spent the first three years of his big league career Milwauki Bruers Before joining New York last season. The cousin became an important part of New York's Bulpen, posted 2.37 ERA in 37 matches during a regular session before allowing five runs in six postsen performances.

Yankiz expected the cousin to return before the all-star break, when he was placed in the injured list in the injured list to start the season. But his recovery was stopped from a pectoral injury and he was recently removed from rehabilitation assignments with elbow problems. He now expects to remember an important part of the 2026 season.
