Giancarlo Stanton’s sudden exit from the New York Yankees’ line-up has left both fans and sports analysts bewildered. There has been no clear explanation either about the reasons behind the powerhouse hitter’s sudden disappearance.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said there is no new update on Giancarlo Stanton as he is away from the team.

That came after a morning report stated that Stanton, who had not swung a bat in about a month, was headed to New York to see the team doctors. Boone, who was unavailable to talk to reporters until later in the afternoon, disputed this. The reports were then amended to say Stanton went back to New York for a "personal matter."
