It’s still early, but the initial returns are beginning to repeat themselves with Giancarlo Stanton.
The Yankees slugger has had a quiet return from the injured list, which is in line with each of the past two seasons, when he came back from leg injuries, though the sample size this time around is still small.
Entering Saturday, after Friday’s series opener against the Rangers was postponed by rain, Stanton was batting 5-for-26 (.192) with a .491 OPS and two doubles in seven games (six starts) since missing five weeks on the injured list with a hamstring strain and not going on a rehab assignment before being activated.
