CyggyMarlin Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120801&content_id=35962644¬ebook_id=35962646&vkey=notebook_mia&c_id=mia ATLANTA -- If all goes according to plan, Giancarlo Stanton could be back in the Marlins' lineup in less than a week. Barring any setbacks, Stanton could be back in the lineup on Tuesday in the series opener against the Mets at Citi Field. Stanton is scheduled to begin his rehab assignment with Class A Jupiter on Thursday. The hope is the All-Star right fielder will need only a few Minor League games before returning to big league action. Stanton had two cartilage chips removed from his right knee on July 8, and recovery was estimated to be four to six weeks. Miami is hoping that it is closer to the four-week mark. Stanton has not played since July 7 in St. Louis, when he was removed from the game after two innings due to soreness in his right knee. The surgery was performed by Marlins physician, Dr. Lee Kaplan, the next day in Miami. The 22-year-old still paces the club with 19 home runs and 50 RBIs. In 80 games, he's batting .284.

Miami_Marlins_fan Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 This is the best news we've had in a while. I can't wait to have Giancarlo back among us, and healthy!!! A healthy Giancarlo will be a thing of beauty. I hope he hits a dozen or so more home runs before the season is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I'd prefer that they were extra careful and waited a couple of additional weeks. They already screwed up Morrison by playing him when he shouldn't be playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already screwed up Morrison by playing him when he shouldn't be playing. Seriously. If he somehow aggravates his knee there will be no excuse. If Stanton has a knee related setback, I might be done with this team until they get a new FO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I get the feeling that he's not gonna get anything to hit with the rest of the offense producing so poorly. Even more so when Lee gets put on waivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canefandynasty Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I just hope he continues to improve his batting average. If he does he will be an absolute monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanofthefish Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 He just went yard in his rehab game. It was a hell of a shot to right field!!! Was really cool that he plated Ozuna and Yelich, I was sitting there thinking there's the OF of the future!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
