Brian Cashman didn’t rule out Kyle Schwarber joining the Yankees, but he also didn’t seem to think Giancarlo Stanton’s role was very flexible.

Briefly this week, there was a glimmer of hope about Giancarlo Stanton’s flexibility moving forward for the New York Yankees.

After we’d all mentally penciled the hulking slugger in as a full-time DH for the next seven years, Aaron Boone seemed to give us a little wiggle room on his outfield availability, stating that Stanton could eventually play up to a third of his games in the field.
