MLB:
Does Stanton’s return alter the Yankees’ lineup construction and affect other hitters like LeMahieu or Torres?
Qwiket AI:
Stanton’s return provides a deeper, right-handed power option, potentially pushing LeMahieu or Torres down the order less frequently when Stanton hits ahead. Boone may rotate the lineup to optimize protection around Judge’s elbow restrictions, which could impact which players receive favorable plate appearances and altered RBI opportunities.
