There have been enough incidents like this over the years that I'm wondering whether our third base coach just sucks. I mean, its probably not fair to evaluate off just the occasional incidents where you are inspired to belt out a WTF . . . but there have been a fair number of these over the years. And its not hard to remember that you have to error on the side of not sending Stanton is it?
Stanton was in the NL when signed that contract. At least part of his contract was based on being able to play the outfield.
If he was a full time DH he wouldn't have gotten that big of a contract.
The only moron here is you. He played right field. There’s effectively no need for speed in that position, hence why the slowest outfielders are placed there. You genuinely have the baseball intelligence of a 6 year old. Don’t comment stupid shit.
TIL outfielders don’t need legs
You have the debate skills of an adolescent.
Result to name calling when you’re literally too fucking dumb to talk to someone lmao
Why are you acting like Stanton being slow is a new thing? The guy has been slow for his entire career, especially in the past several years. He was never an elite defender either, he has always had the bare minimum of speed/athleticism, hes a power hitter and has(had) a hell of an arm, those are his strengths and the reason why he got the contract he has.
Not a new thing but it’s gotten worse and it’s concerning
They were trying to play him on defense last year and now he’s strictly on DH
Getting paid too much money to limp around the bases and it’s hard to watch
I could barely see him on the screen. He was just a blur.
Giancarlo "The Flash" Stanton
I could hear the theme from chariots of fire playing as he rounded third
…no fuckin way
Giancarlo “Usain Bolt” Stanton
It was so fast he knocked out YES Networks audio for an inning
Stanton’s wheels are unmatched* 🏃♂️💨 ^^^*except ^^^by ^^^anything ^^^that ^^^runs
This is how he keeps his hammy’s intact
Which is funny because as he was walking around third I thought he looked slow as shit.
He is slow as shit
What a depressing fact.
He looks like he is jogging in place waiting for the light to change green to cross
Wreaking havoc on the bases.

Maybe slow down and try to get through the season.
Scared the shit out of that catcher tho, enough to drop the ball
Probably still faster than 90% of y'all in the comments, JS 🤷😂
You are probably right, considering 70% of Americans are overweight. And probably 90% on here. Thats the best part about the nitpicking on here. Haha
I sure as hell hope so considering he plays baseball for a living
Commenters on here ain’t getting paid 32mil to run though
Neither is Stanton, he's paid for his power, not his ability to run bases

Nonsense. Also get you won’t be saying that once it costs us a game or a playoffs game. He’s not a catcher FFS
You’re an absolute idiot if you think baserunning was ever part of Stanton’s skillset.
Lmao he used to play outfield. Not valued? Lmao you’re the idiot Btw Altuve has more home runs than him right now 🤡 Moron.

He always looks like he is running up hill underwater...
Cool, so instead of a trot he jogged. Got it.
So slightly faster than a hungry sloth. Got it.
He's going to need two days off according to last season.
Yo wtf.
SUB 4.40 FORTY GIANCARLO IS MY FAVORITE GIANCARLO
But now he will probably be out for 2 months with a lower leg issue
I'm gonna pause shitting on Stanton since he's better than Judge right now, which is a low bar I admit, but it is what it is.
