Dr. Spencer Stein, a sports orthopedic surgeon at NYU Langone Health, details what Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton is dealing with and facing with tennis elbow in both arms.

Stanton said he dealt with the condition, which is in both elbows, most of last season — including in October, when he was by far the Yankees’ best offensive performer as they reached the World Series. He said he has not swung a bat in the last “three to four weeks.” It is not clear when he will begin doing so.

The New York Yankees could be without Giancarlo Stanton for a while as he is dealing with elbow injuries. Could they trade for a crosstown slugger?

Stanton’s average bat speed of 81.3 mph was by far the fastest in the majors in 2024. The second-fastest bat in the game belonged to the Pittsburgh Pirates’ Oneil Cruz at 78.6 mph. The 2.7 mph difference between Stanton and Cruz was also the distance between Cruz and the No.

Giancarlo Stanton is dealing with significant pain in both of his elbows and is not sure if he will be ready for the New York Yankees' opening day game with the Milwaukee Brewers, he told reporters Monday.

The New York Yankees are already dealing with an injury to one of their top power hitters. Giancarlo Stanton has soreness in both elbows and hasn't swung a bat in three to four weeks, he revealed Monday morning.

Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton hasn't swung a bat in three or four weeks and isn't sure whether he will be ready for Opening Day because of painful tendinitis in both elbows.
