Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton has returned to New York to undergo medical testing, multiple outlets reported Monday.
Stanton, 35, has yet to take part in spring training activities in Tampa, Fla., as he continues to battle tendinitis in both elbows. The New York Post said Monday that it was unclear whether the medical testing was for an evaluation of his elbows.
On Sunday, manager Aaron Boone told reporters that Stanton was undergoing treatment and "nothing imminent" was on tap for the designated hitter, baseball-wise.
The Yankees haven't been pushing Stanton this spring, giving him time to rest and, hopefully, recover.
