Yankees’ Giancarlo Stanton Throws Shade At Marlins On Instagram
Miami Marlins fans might not like Giancarlo Stanton’s parting shot as much as they did his moonshots.
The New York Yankees slugger appeared to throw shade at his former team Monday in an Instagram post he shared once his trade from Miami became official. After thanking the Marlins and Miami for embracing him, Stanton alluded to the organizational instability that has plagued the team through the years.
“I’ve always tried to be as professional as possible during the unprofessional, circus times there!”
He also didn’t hold back during his introductory news conference Monday afternoon.
Stanton hit .281 with an MLB-best 59 home runs and 132 RBI to claim National League MVP honors last season.
The Yankees acquired him from Miami in exchange for veteran second baseman Starlin Castro and a handful of prospects and are giddy at the prospect of adding him to a lineup, which already includes Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez.
