Stanton alters approach … Giancarlo Stanton (OF, MIA) had a disappointing 2016, posting a .240 BA with 27 HR in another injury shortened season. The slugger has rebounded nicely in 2017, batting .271 with 20 HR through his first 277 AB, becoming just the 11th player in MLB history to hit 20+ HR in each of his first eight seasons.
