Last week Miami Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton was struck in the head with a fastball. He sustained substantial injuries to the left side of his face and was carted off the field on a stretcher.

On Tuesday Stanton posted the above before and after photo to Instagram, which shows a remarkable level of recovery in a very short period of time.

No timetable has been set for his return, but he was evaluated by team doctors and a potential return before the season ends has not been ruled out.

Right now everyone is just hoping for the best and wishing Stanton well for the remainder of his rehab.
