At one point, Stanton flew from Tampa to New York to undergo testing and received two rounds of platelet-rich plasma injections in both elbows. Surgery was on the table as a worst-case scenario, which would&rsquo;ve cost him roughly three months, but the team opted against it, in part because they weren&rsquo;t fully aware of the severity of his condition until shortly before camp opened. According to the Yankees, Stanton hadn&rsquo;t swung a bat for three to four weeks before reporting to spring training.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Giancarlo Stanton does some running pregame <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JpEIHnozfS\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/JpEIHnozfS<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Yankees Videos (@snyyankees) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/snyyankees\/status\/1923481140096057826?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>May 16, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Now, with running activity nearly complete and hitting volume increasing, all signs point to a rehab assignment in the near future.
