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 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.
