RT @neal_kendrick: According to @baseball_ref Giancarlo Stanton has 44 line drive homers since the start of the 2011 season. No other hitter has more than 25.
RT @MLBNetworkRadio: Audio: Mike Redmond on #Astros leak re: Stanton: “Giancarlo is a huge part of our future. This guy is untouchable”
Marlins said they are not interested in trading Stanton and would only consider it if the Astros offered their top 2 prospects.
Marlins are easy target, but it’s the Astros that asked about Stanton: “[Luhnow] talked to [Jennings] and said we had interest in Stanton”
Not getting worked up about the Stanton/Astros talk. Any player can be traded for the right value. GMs have these kind of chats regularly.
RT @BNightengale: #Marlins GM Dan Jennings says it’s completely fabricated that they ever offered Stanton to #Astros or any other team calling it ‘laughable.”
RT @MLBFanCave: Seriously can’t wait to watch @Giancarlo818 crush baseballs during the @Gillette #HRDerby.

Giancarlo was in full helicopter mode in that last at bat
