Giancarlo Stanton had just finished talking to reporters Tuesday afternoon about being placed on the 15-day disabled list when a 22-year-old kid showed up at his locker, sidling up a little cautiously as he approached, not asking for the Miami slugger’s autograph but, more or less, for his blessing.
-Giancarlo Stanton has Grade 2 hamstring strain; out several weeks at minimum | Fish Bytes
Giancarlo Stanton has a grade 2 hamstring strain that will keep him out of the Marlins lineup for at least a few weeks, and that's in a "best-case scenario." Stanton underwent a MRI on Tuesday, one day after pulling up lame while running the bases.
Marcell Ozuna isn't sure how long he's going to be up in the big leagues, but he's enjoyed the ride so far and he's going to try his best to make sure it doesn't end. The 22-year old Dominican outfielder, brought up from Double A Jacksonville to help fill the shoes of the injured Giancarlo Stanton (expected to be out around a month with a hamstring), already has his first memento. It's the ball he collected his first big league hit on in Tuesday's win over the Mets. Ozuna pulled it out of his locker Wednesday morning and showed it to reporters. Everyone on the team had signed it for him.
