Giancarlo Stanton Faces Longest Triple Drought in MLB History

New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is highlighted for having the longest active 'tripleless' drought in MLB history, going 649 games without a triple, far surpassing the second-longest streak. Despite this, Stanton remains one of the most prolific power hitters, boasting 429 career home runs and playing a crucial role in the Yankees' postseason success in 2024. Meanwhile, LSU's Derek Curiel has gained recognition as the top freshman outfielder in the nation, showcasing impressive stats from high school and fall exhibition games. Additionally, LSU's Jared 'Bear' Jones, who chose to forgo the MLB Draft, is expected to be a top prospect in the upcoming draft after a strong season. In the MLB, the Detroit Tigers' Riley Greene has emerged as a key player, finishing the 2024 season with solid stats and earning his first All-Star selection. Meanwhile, Cincinnati Reds ace Hunter Greene is aiming to build on his stellar 2024 performance as he leads the team's rotation into the next season.
