Giancarlo Stanton was the reigning MVP when he joined the New York Yankees, but his consistency has come into question in recent years. While he is fully healthy, he is an offensive powerhouse capable of hitting home runs in bunches. Unfortunately, he has had a tough time staying on the field over the last four seasons.Stanton had a great 2022 campaign, playing 110 games and being selected to the All-Star team for the first time since 2017. His batting average of 2022 was only .211, likely due to his struggles with injuries. His 31 home runs were among the best on the team. This return to form is exactly what the Yankees need, and will be needed if their goal is still a World Series.Fireside Yankees on Twitter posed the question of Giancarlo Stanton's ability to stay consistent next season.Fireside Yankees@FiresideYankeesWhat are your thoughts? #NYY66517What are your thoughts? #NYY https://t.co/BXP4BDe9wDNeedless to say, this is a topic New York Yankees fans are very concerned with. If he is unable to stay healthy and consistent at the plate, the team will falter. Their offensive production relies on home runs, which Stanton, Aaron Judge and Anthony Rizzo have to be able to provide. With the pool of free agent sluggers dwindling, the Yankees are relying on Stanton.BroadwayBillLee@BroadwayBill101@FiresideYankees Name a season he’s ever been consistent But I love it when he blasts em out @FiresideYankees Name a season he’s ever been consistent 😂But I love it when he blasts em out ⚾️ 💥Victor Martinez@VictorM13278857@FiresideYankees He’s consistent in being injured @FiresideYankees He’s consistent in being injured 😂Ricardo@chxsen0neHell no twitter.com/firesideyankee…Fireside Yankees@FiresideYankeesWhat are your thoughts? #NYY66917What are your thoughts? #NYY https://t.co/BXP4BDe9wDHell no twitter.com/firesideyankee…Fans around the MLB want to see Stanton succeed, but it seems like his last few seasons have all been the same. He is great while healthy, but an injury pops up that either affects his performance or ability to stay on the field. Given how competitive the American League East is, the New York Yankees will need Giancarlo Stanton at his best in 2023.Thomas Stolp@njtommy64@FiresideYankees Consistent? No. Periods where he is amazing mashing balls at 115mph all over the field? Yes of course. The issue is for the life of me, what not sign beintendi?

For teams like the Yankees, where a championship is a goal and an expectation, playoff success is valued very highly. Some fans will be able to accept Giancarlo Stanton's inconsistency as long as he performs in the postseason.Sebastian Moraga@SebMoraga1896No but if he gives me 5 walk offs in the regular season and 1-2 huge go ahead bombs in the playoffs then that’s all I really need from him I suppose 🤷🏻‍♂️ twitter.com/firesideyankee…Fireside Yankees@FiresideYankeesWhat are your thoughts? #NYY69617What are your thoughts? #NYY https://t.co/BXP4BDe9wDNo but if he gives me 5 walk offs in the regular season and 1-2 huge go ahead bombs in the playoffs then that’s all I really need from him I suppose 🤷🏻‍♂️ twitter.com/firesideyankee…ANTHONY BARATTA@GoYanksGo2442@FiresideYankees It’s not a matter of consistency imo… it’s his staying healthy and taking 3 months to get right after spraining his pinky toe… come on… if you can’t get right after getting hurt… you’re not allowed to get hurt@FiresideYankees It’s not a matter of consistency imo… it’s his staying healthy and taking 3 months to get right after spraining his pinky toe… come on… if you can’t get right after getting hurt… you’re not allowed to get hurtJeff Medeiros@JeffMed16730111@FiresideYankees Consistently streaky yes .
