Giancarlo Stanton went 2-for-4 with a walk, double, and home run in Tuesday's win over the Nationals. Stanton hit a tape measure shot off of Stephen Strasburg in the first inning with two on, sending a slider 457 feet to dead center. Stanton is up to five home runs and 21 RBI on the season now, about what one would expect from the slugger. The only question concerns Stanton's ability to stay healthy over a full slate of games.

Giancarlo Stanton went deep twice in the Marlins' loss to the Phillies on Saturday night. Stanton's first home run was a mammoth 470-foot solo shot to center field off Phillies starter Jonathan Pettibone, and he followed with a two-run blast to left-center in the top of the seventh off Phillies reliever Justin De Fratus. The 24-year-old slugger has four home runs and 16 RBI in 12 games this year. That's a 216-RBI pace.

Giancarlo Stanton had an RBI single in Sunday's loss to the Padres, his seventh straight game with a run batted in. Stanton's RBI single was his lone hit in four at-bats, but he's still hitting .345 with 12 RBI through seven games. Stanton also stole his second base of the year in the game. It's certainly a better start than the 24-year-old enjoyed to his treacherous 2013 season.
