Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton was reinstated from the injured list Monday to make his season debut against the Los Angeles Angels, giving the club a surplus of lineup options 70 games into the season.
Stanton was sidelined through Sunday with tendon injuries in both elbows. He played in 2024 despite joint pain, including through a postseason in which he clubbed seven home runs in 14 games, but then he was shut down from swinging a bat in January until late March.
