After an injury-riddled season, Giancarlo Stanton’s issues are extending into the postseason.
Stanton is out of the starting lineup for Game 2 of the ALCS on Sunday against the Houston Astros. Manager Aaron Boone cited a quad issue, but could not offer many details.
Boone: Quad issue for Stanton. Severity not yet clear

Boone said MRI taken on Stanton’s right quad showed a strain but the team hopes after being off today and off tomorrow maybe it will improve enough that he could still be a factor in the series

Obviously, this throws the rest of the ALCS into doubt for Stanton. It comes after a series of injuries that limited the outfielder to just 18 regular season games. This is simply going to be dependent on how the injured quad responds. He’ll have two days off before Game 3 in New York, and the Yankees should know more by then.
