Stanton is a secondary Yankee piece whose power off the bench or mid-order lift can provide additional homer upside within NYY stacks.

Stanton faces Simeon Woods-Richardson, and his success against right-handed pitchers, highlighted by a 30.3% Barrel% and high SLG against four-seam and slider, makes the over 0.5 HR a strong value play on a day with favorable park factors and wind. His power surge since rejoining the Yankees reinforces the upside of a +255 line.

Stanton provides solid late-game upside with an OPS of 1.045 across 49 recent outings. In Yankee stacks, he helps anchor power-heavy lineups against Gipson-Long, delivering clutch RBIs and homers in favorable run environments.

Stanton’s defensive risk in RF pairs with Judge’s health, affecting positioning and defensive alignments. His presence could stabilize the outfield when Judge limits throws, but injury risk remains a consideration for daily use.

Stanton resumes DH duties as Judge returns to RF, preserving Yankees’ power while shielding Judge’s arm. Stanton’s role anchors the lineup in the DH spot during Judge’s mixed-outfield return, influencing daily fantasy projections and overall Yankee scoring potential.
