New York Yankees’ Giancarlo Stanton: Boom or Bust in 2020?

New York Yankees‘ Giancarlo Stanton was the longtime brute of the MLB who held the crown for the biggest and baddest slugger on the block — until Aaron Judge showed up. Now, two years into being teammates, both have struggled to stay on the field consistently. Stanton’s 2017 season that saw him demolish 59 HR’s, 17 in the month of August alone, en route to the NL MVP award, is now a thing of the past. For Stanton, 2020 is going to be arguably the most important year of his entire career.
