Homer happy. That's Giancarlo Stanton. He's been playing rehab games in Tampa, and he's looking good... real good.
The Associated Press has this story:
"Giancarlo Stanton homered twice in a minor league rehab game with Class A Tampa on Wednesday night. Stanton hasn't played for the Yankees since March 31.

He originally went on the injured list with a strained left biceps but strained his left shoulder while rehabbing and then had a rehab assignment with Tampa stopped after one game on May 20 due to left calf tightness."
When will he be activated on the big roster? Soon. What does it mean for the personnel that is already doing great things in the Yankee lineup? We shall see. No question though it will be tricky... but here's the thing; The Yankees are paying guys like Stanton an enormous amount of money. Many of you are suggesting may the best player should play, but this is reality... you don't pay top athletes big dollars and not play them. And so, Stanton will be back and they will work him into the lineup because in the end, he's their top player. They will just have to figure it out and learn the win together.
I love what I see here.
