Stanton (foot) is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old exited Monday's game after fouling a pitching off the top of his foot/ankle, and he'll stay on the bench for both contests of Wednesday's twin bill. Manager Aaron Boone previously indicated Stanton could be available for the nightcap, so it's possible he's available off the bench.

Stanton (foot) isn't starting the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Twins, Max Goodman of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was removed from Monday's game against Minnesota after fouling a ball off the top of his foot/ankle, and Aaron Judge will serve as the designated hitter during Wednesday's matinee. However, manager Aaron Boone said prior to the doubleheader that it's possible that Stanton will be available for the second game of the twin bill, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.

Stanton was removed from Monday's game against the Twins in the bottom of the eighth inning due to a foot/ankle injury, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton fouled a ball off the top of his foot/ankle in the bottom of the sixth inning and initially remained in the game, but he was replaced by a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth. He underwent X-rays that came back negative, so he should tentatively be considered day-to-day.

Stanton will sit Saturday against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton returned from an Achilles injury Thursday and went 1-for-8 with a pair of walks across his first two games back. He won't be asked to start three days in a row right away. Gleyber Torres will rest his legs as the designated hitter Saturday, with DJ LeMahieu starting at second base.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a walk and three RBI in Thursday's 13-4 rout of Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was activated from the injured list prior to the game after he missed over a month due to an Achilles injury. The slugger wasted little time reintroducing himself to the offense, driving in two runs with a single in the second inning. Stanton produced another RBI as a result of walking with the bases loaded in the following frame, giving him his ninth performance with at least three RBI on the campaign. Stanton's bat is a welcome addition to a Yankees offense that largely struggled during the later stages of his absence.

Stanton (Achilles) is hitting third while serving as the designated hitter Thursday against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was activated from the injured list earlier Thursday and will immediately re-enter the lineup. Though he's split time fairly evenly between right field and designated hitter throughout the season, Stanton will likely be given light defensive duties for the foreseeable future. DJ LeMahieu was forced to the bench Thursday as the Yankees shuffled their lineup for Stanton's return.

Stanton (Achilles) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was expected to rejoin the Yankees on Thursday since he's been on a rehab assignment at Double-A Somerset over the last few days. The 32-year-old went 0-for-7 with three strikeouts over two Double-A games, but he felt good after his rehab games. Stanton will likely serve mainly as the designated hitter now that he's back on the active roster as the Yankees attempt to ease him back into action after missing just under a month.

Manager Aaron Boone confirmed Tuesday that Stanton (Achilles) remains on track to return from the 10-day injured list Thursday in Oakland, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

While serving as a designated hitter and playing back-to-back rehab games at Double-A Somerset last weekend, Stanton went 0-for-7 with three strikeouts, but he didn't experience any discomfort in his left Achilles' tendon. Stanton rejoined the Yankees and took live batting practice Tuesday against rehabbing pitcher Luis Severino (lat), with the slugger apparently coming out of that workout feeling fine in what represented the final test of his health. Once Stanton is reinstated from the IL on Thursday, the Yankees are expected to limit Stanton's exposure to the outfield, at least initially, but he should handle DH duties on a near-everyday basis. He was hitting .228 with 24 home runs and 61 RBI through 80 games before landing on the IL on July 26.

Manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that he expects Stanton (Achilles) to be ready to return from the 10-day injured list for the start of the Yankees' four-game series in Oakland on Thursday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton, who has been on the shelf since July 26 with left Achilles tendinitis, began a rehab assignment Saturday for Double-A Somerset, going 0-for-3 at the dish. The Yankees haven't revealed whether Stanton will get any exposure to the outfield while he's out on assignment, but he's expected to return from the IL during the upcoming week as the team's primary designated hitter in any case. Before the injury surfaced, Stanton batted .228 with 24 home runs, 61 RBI and 40 runs across 80 games with New York.

Stanton (Achilles) went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in a rehab contest with Double-A Somerset on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton saw his first game action of any kind since July 23 and showed some rust, fanning twice in three plate appearances. The slugger is expected to play for Somerset again Sunday before taking live batting practice against injured hurler Luis Severino (lat) on Tuesday. Stanton could then be activated for the start of New York's four-game series in Oakland that begins Thursday, per Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record.
