Right Fielder Aaron Judge missed batting practice because of a shoulder issue. Right -hander Luis Severino has elected to have Tommy John Surgery so his season is over before the regular season even begins and now Giancarlo Stanton who is a left-fielder has a calf strain.

Because of that this question comes to mind. Will Giancarlo Stanton be ready for opening day when New York heads to Baltimore for a three game series starting March 26th?
