Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton has received a second round of PRP injections in both elbows, pitcher Luis Gil is out at least three months with a lat strain, and infielder DJ LeMahieu is out several weeks with a calf strain.

With Opening Day just over three weeks away, the Yankees will start the season without two key players: designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton and starting pitcher Luis Gil.

Ben Rice having a strong spring training for the New York Yankees makes Giancarlo Stanton's injury a little bit less painful for the team.

Yankees pitcher Luis Gil will be sidelined for at least three months because of his lat strain and designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton would have surgery on his elbows only as a last resort, according to general manager Brian Cashman.
