The Yankees overwhelmed by injuries, place Giancarlo Stanton and Miguel Andujar 10 days from home

The 2019 season is not a good start for the New York Yankees. In addition to losing two of three draws at home against the modest Orioles this weekend, the Yankees have lost several major players following an injury since the start of spring training.

The list of wounded New York is lying a little Monday. The Yankees announced that Giancarlo Stanton was on the 10-day injury list for a left bicep injury. Clint Frazier was summoned from Triple-A to replace him.

Before tonight's match, the @Yankees DE Giancarlo Stanton ranked on the 10-day wounded list with a left bicep strain and recall of Triple-A's OF Clint Frazier (# 77) @swbrailriders.

Shortly afterwards, bad news about the third baseman, Miguel Andujar, was dropped:

Miguel Andujar is on the list of injured on the shoulder. Injured by diving into the third Tyler Wade being recalled.

Although he has not yet come home, Stanton is 2-for-8 (.250) with seven MLB-leading marches at the start of the season. He hit .266 / .343 / .509 with 38 home homers last season and this can be considered a year down from his career average. Andujar has just finished his rookie season 2018 during which he scored 27 homers and 47 doubles in 149 games. This season, it started slowly at first.

Stanton and Andujar are already the eighth and ninth Yankees, respectively, to end up on the list of injured in 2019. Here is the list:

In addition, CC Sabathia will be placed on the injured list on Wednesday after serving the five-game suspension. He makes his way after knee and heart surgery after the off season. That will make nine Yankees on the list of the wounded.

The Yankees are now without their ace (Severino), their No. 3 hitter (Stanton), their starting shortstop (Gregorius), their outgoing center (Hicks), their third base player (Andujar), their best striker ( Betances), and several deep players. Betances, Gregorius, Hicks, Severino, Stanton and Andujar combined for 21.6 WAR last season. That's a lot of missing production.

Frazier missed much of last season due to concussions and did not have a good spring training, hitting .135 / .228 / .245 with 16 strikeouts in 45 games. The Yankees had planned to send him back to Triple-A for regular treatment after missing so much time last year. Now, they need him in the big leagues.

With Stanton joining Hicks and Gregorius on the injured list, Yankees manager Aaron Boone will likely use a regular lineup that now looks like this:

1. CF Brett Gardner
2. RF Aaron judge
3. 1B Greg Bird
4. DH Luke Voit
5. C Gary Sanchez
6. 2B Gleyber Torres
7. 3B DJ LeMahieu
8. SS Troy Tulowitzki
9. LF Clint Frazier

Frazier scored 9 goals for 34 (.265) in major league finals last year and crushed the ball in 48 Triple-A games (.311 / .389 / .574) around the concussion. . He is an old hope – the Yankees have acquired him as head of the trade show Andrew Miller three years ago – who has not yet extended his playing time at MLB. It probably changes now.

The Yankees have not announced the seriousness of Stanton's injury, nor given the timing of his return. The Andujar injury calls for a shoulder injury and he is about to undergo further tests. Hicks had not yet resumed his baseball activities since updating his team this weekend and Gregorius is not expected until the second half. The Yankees still have a nice attack, even without these guys. They are clearly not at full power, however.
