Undoubtedly, he was a little more careful when Giancarlo came up for his second at-bat.All eyes will be on Giancarlo Stanton and others in Aaron Judge's absenceNew York Yankees v Los Angeles DodgersGiancarlo Stanton will have to keep the Yankees' offense afloat for a while. They'll be without Aaron Judge as he nurses his toe injury after making a spectacular catch against the Los Angeles Dodgers last weekend. It's been a week, and there still isn't a set time for his return.Guys like Stanton, Anthony Rizzo, and DJ LeMahieu will have all the eyes on them. Somebody will have to make up the home runs that will be lost without Judge.Fans would love to see Stanton fired up. He's only played in 18 games this season, as he's spent most of his time on the IL with a hamstring strain. On the season, he's hitting .243/.284/.514 with five home runs, but those numbers should improve as he gets more comfortable in the box.The Bronx Bombers can't afford to slide with Judge on the sidelines. They must keep up the momentum they have created over the last month until Judge returns.
