Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton missed Friday's game against the Phillies and has already been ruled out for Saturday due to a sore left shoulder. Stanton suffered the injury last Saturday against the Mets in New York.
“I wasn’t too sure if it was the weather or that dive. But it has been escalating,’’ he told the Palm Beach Post after Friday's game.
Stanton has been dealing with the soreness for a few days and said it got worse during warm-ups Friday. He is set to undergo an MRI Saturday that could reveal the extent of the injury. He might be forced to sit out Sunday's series finale as well.
