\n All the proof needed to agree with former Yankees reliever Mike Stanton\u2019s vision for MLB\u2019s shortened season was reinforced Saturday.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Gerrit Cole and Adam Ottavino continued their Yankee Stadium bullpen sessions ahead of Wednesday\u2019s \u201cspring training\u2019\u2019 reporting date for players. Two days of testing will be followed by the Yankees\u2019 first workout at the Stadium on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think this has a chance to be anemic offensively,\u2019\u2019 Stanton told The Post on Saturday from his Texas home. \u201cThat\u2019s because hitters are not going to get the live game<\/a> repetitions they would get in a regular spring training.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Cole and Ottavino aren\u2019t alone throwing bullpen sessions ever since the coronavirus shut down spring training camps on March 12. Zack Britton and James Paxton continued to throw in Texas and Wisconsin, respectively, and Jordan Montgomery did the same in South Carolina.<\/p>\n

Stanton has a two-pronged plan to get pitchers and hitters ready at the same time.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would want all pitchers to throw live batting practice, 40 pitches. I don\u2019t want game intensity but pitchers throw that many pitches in bullpens,\u2019\u2019 Stanton said. \u201cThe hitters should take live batting practice from Day 1. I would want the hitters to see as much live BP as possible.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Stanton, a Yankees reliever from 1997 to 2002 and again in 2005, believes today\u2019s pitchers\u2019 habits during downtime like this three-plus-month hiatus shouldn\u2019t limit the number of pitches thrown in early games.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a different generation and a different mindset,\u2019\u2019 said the 53-year-old Stanton, who pitched in the big leagues for 19 years with the Braves, Yankees, Red Sox, Mets, Nationals, Giants and Rangers. \u201cIn some capacity they have been throwing.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Stanton suggests not overdoing anything in the first week of spring training 2 to avoid injuries. But after that, the focus should be on building stamina and pitch count.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last 10 days cut it loose. I think a starter should be able to throw 90 [pitches],\u2019\u2019 Stanton said.<\/p>\n

How Matt Blake, the Yankees\u2019 first-year pitching coach, maps out his starters\u2019 workload between Friday and the first game should the COVID-19 pandemic allow it, on July 23 against the defending world champion Nationals in Washington, will be interesting and likely cautious.<\/p>\n

Cole, who would have started Opening Day against the Orioles in Baltimore and Aaron Boone\u2019s obvious choice versus the Nationals, threw 55 pitches in his fourth spring training start on March 10. With two more spring outings remaining, Cole would have likely hiked the pitch count in the first by 15 or so but a lot of pitching coaches shorten a starter\u2019s pitch count in the final outing.<\/p>\n

However, first comes something baseball has never seen before: extensive testing for a virus.<\/p>\n

Yankees players and staff members will go through two days of stringent screening and medical testing before entering the Stadium on Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Teams have until 4 p.m. Sunday to submit a 60-man roster. Likely to be included are top pitching prospects Clarke Schmidt and Deivi Garcia who are not on the 40-man roster. Without minor league games, it is an opportunity to provide a structured program and a chance to be part of a taxi squad.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
