If a TMZ photog wants to reprise his role as Giancarlo Stanton‘s personal driver during the World Series this weekend … New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says he’ll allow it!
Charlie Cotton‘s first go-around as the slugger’s chauffeur, of course, happened nearly a decade ago … after Stanton had missed a flight at LAX.

With nothing but time to fill, Cotton asked the then-Miami Marlins outfielder if he wanted to cruise over to TMZ’s offices … and host the “TMZ Sports” show.
Stanton shockingly said yes, and the two then got in Cotton’s beat-up ride and bro’d down on their way to Playa Vista. A short drive later, Stanton made it safely … and seemed to have a blast the entire time.
Now that the baseballer’s back in L.A. to face off with the Dodgers in the Fall Classic … Cotton just had to ask Cashman on Thursday out at LAX if he could have Round 2 with the home run hitter — and BC surprisingly gave his blessing.
“You got him where he needed to go safe and sound,” Cashman said, “so why not?!”
So far, no linkup between the two — and if we’re all being honest, there’s almost certainly no chance one goes down while the Pinstripes are competing for a championship. But if Stanton somehow needs it — Cashman said “If it was good enough for Big G, then I’m sure he’d be in good hands.”
Five stars, Cotton … five stars!
