Giancarlo Stanton went on the DL with a groin injury early on Sunday. He was to have an MRI to make sure it wasn't too serious... Well the MRI said that it WAS serious. It was very serious. Stanton is out for the year.
This is about the biggest blow that any possible playoff team could have. He is one of the best players in baseball and almost definetly the best power hitter in baseball. The Marlins are nothing without Stanton in the lineup. No other team could possibly have a bigger blow to their season as the Marlins just had today. Awful news for a great player and a really fun team to watch.
Stanton has had a long line of injuries and it's quite dissapointing. Watching Stanton literally hit 500 ft homers is one of the most enjoyable things in baseball right now. But with all the injuries, it has really effected his legacy.
Update: The Marlins are reaching out to Arod in the wake of the Stanton injury
