Stanton went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton opened the scoring with a two-run, 430-foot blast off Cristian Javier in the first inning. It's the 33-year-old slugger's second homer in as many days and his ninth in his last 20 contests. Stanton is still slashing just .204/.276/.458, though he's added 16 homers, 41 RBI and 28 runs scored across 239 plate appearances this season.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
His three-run blast in the third inning off Shane McClanahan (forearm) broke the game open for the Yankees. Stanton continues to be feast or famine at the plate -- he has four multi-hit performances in his last nine starts but only one other hit in the other five, and in 17 contests since the All-Star break he's slashing .203/.278/.500 with six of his 15 homers on the year and 16 of his 39 RBI.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton provided most of the offense for New York on Saturday, driving home Billy McKinney with a single in the first inning and later launching a two-run shot in the eighth to put the Yankees up 5-2. The home run was Stanton's 13th this year and his sixth in the month of July, though he's still batting just .120 over his last six games and .200 on the season even with Saturday's performance.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees fell behind big early before Stanton put them on the board with a solo shot in the sixth inning. The long ball was his fifth in his past eight games, and he's knocked in 10 runs over that span. However, Stanton hasn't done much aside from the homers recently, as he has only one other hit (a double) and is batting.194 (6-for-31) over those eight games.

Stanton went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton set the tone early, knocking in a run with a first-inning groundout before adding his homer in the second. He's homered four times over his last four contests, bringing his total to 11 on the year. The outfielder has added a .213/.287/.471 slash line with 29 RBI and 20 runs scored, but his recent hitting -- 13-for-48 (.271) since June 24 -- is much more in line with what's expected of a player of his caliber.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Friday's 7-2 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees got off to a hot start with Stanton's first-inning blast, but that was it for their run production in the contest. He's starting to get back on track, going 11-for-38 (.289) with four homers and 11 RBI over his last 11 games. The veteran slugger is at a .211/.281/.454 slash line with 10 long balls, 25 RBI, 19 runs scored and seven doubles through 42 contests on the year.

Stanton went 2-for-3 with two home runs, three RBI and three runs scored in Saturday's victory over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton wasted no time getting the Yankees on the board, launching a 447-foot solo home run to left field in his first at-bat. He walked his next time up before coming around to score on a Harrison Bader double, and then added a two-run shot in the fifth to give New York a commanding lead. The outfielder had not homered through his first six games in July and is now up to just long balls on the season following Saturday's performance.

Stanton is starting in right field and batting cleanup in Thursday's game versus the Athletics, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton has now made back-to-back starts in right field and has been at the position three times over the last week. Those are his first three starts in the field since April 12, as he had been limited to designated hitter duty following a seven-week absence with a strained hamstring. Gleyber Torres will DH in this one, with DJ LeMahieu handling second base.

Stanton went 2-for-3 with a home run, three RBI and a walk in Wednesday's 11-0 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton's fourth-inning blast gave Domingo German all the run support he needed in his perfect game. Prior to Wednesday, Stanton had gone just 3-for-37 (.081) with no extra-base hits, one RBI and a 3:16 BB:K over his last 10 games. This was his first multi-hit game since returning from a hamstring injury. The slugger is up to seven homers, 17 RBI and 13 runs scored, but he's slashing a meager .197/.260/.410 through 32 contests.
