He\u2019s one of the guys that will get here. But he\u2019s had a good winter. He\u2019s ready to roll.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stanton\u2019s health has been a recurring storyline in recent seasons, making any positive offseason news a good thing as the Yankees prepare for the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Boone also made it clear that, even with Stanton feeling well, the team will stick to its usual approach early in camp and try not to overdo it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t expect any limitations. I usually slow-play him into games in spring, so you might not see him that first week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That ramp-up stuff has been normal for Stanton, as it allows him to build himself up without getting hurt doing something that\u2019s ultimately useless.<\/p>\n<p>If the early outlook continues on, the Yankees could enter the season with one of their top power bats fully available, a key factor for a lineup looking to not only score a lot of runs, but also hit home runs and win the American League.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>More MLB news:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York Yankees get excellent injury news on Giancarlo Stanton as Spring Training gets underway originally appeared on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":578862,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2376],"tags":[1797,5,310,4,1690,62,2548,2547,44913,142],"class_list":{"0":"post-578861","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-yankees","8":"tag-aaron-boone","9":"tag-baseball","10":"tag-giancarlo-stanton","11":"tag-mlb","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-yankees","14":"tag-newyork","15":"tag-newyorkyankees","16":"tag-randy-miller","17":"tag-yankees"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116090418467682621","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578861","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=578861"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578861\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/578862"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=578861"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=578861"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=578861"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
