Stanton is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton started the first three games of the series and cranked his first home run of the season in Wednesday's contest, but he'll begin Thursday's festivities on the bench. Aaron Judge is getting a start at designated hitter as the Yankees try to avoid a four-game sweep.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk Wednesday in a loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton landed the biggest blow in a six-run fifth inning for New York with a 415-foot, three-run blast to center field. It was the first homer -- and the second extra-base hit of any type -- for the veteran masher since coming off the injured list and making his season debut June 16. Through 13 games this season, Stanton is slashing .244/.346/.333 with seven RBI.

Stanton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton had served as the Yankees' designated hitter for each of the previous three games, marking the first time since being activated from the 60-day injured list June 16 that he had started more than two contests in a row. He'll be back on the bench Sunday, and Stanton could continue to get at least two or three games off per week if he's unable to get going at the dish. After returning from the IL with a pair of two-hit performances, Stanton has gone 4-for-26 with no extra-base hits and a 4:10 BB:K over his subsequent eight contests.

Stanton isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton is 5-for-15 through his first five games since returning from the IL, and he'll take a day to rest Saturday. His absence will move Aaron Judge to the DH spot while Jasson Dominguez, Trent Grisham and Cody Bellinger start across the outfield.

Stanton is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton started at designated hitter and picked up two hits in both of his first two games back from the 60-day injured list, but he will get a breather Wednesday. Jasson Dominguez will serve as the Yankees' designated hitter and will bat eighth.

The Yankees activated Stanton (elbows) from the 60-day injured list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton is set to make his season debut Monday versus the Angels following a long absence while recovering from tennis elbow in both arms. He should be the Yankees' primary designated hitter moving forward, which would leave fewer starts for Ben Rice, Paul Goldschmidt, Jasson Dominguez and Trent Grisham.

Stanton (elbows) will be activated from the 60-day injured list and included in the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton is finally set to make his season debut after recovering from tendinitis in both elbows. He might not play every day right away after a lengthy layoff, but Stanton is likely to see the bulk of the starts at designated hitter over the long haul. Stanton's arrival could leave fewer at-bats to go around for Ben Rice, Paul Goldschmidt, Jasson Dominguez and Trent Grisham.

Manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Stanton (elbows) is expected to be activated from the 60-day injured list and be in the lineup against the Angels on Monday or Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran slugger went 3-for-11 with a double and four RBI in three rehab games with Double-A Somerset, and he's back with the big club Sunday for a workout at Yankee Stadium. Stanton has been on the shelf all season due to a severe case of tendinitis in both elbows, but he's finally on the cusp of his 2025 MLB debut.

Stanton (elbows) is expected to be activated from the 60-day IL during the Yankees' upcoming home series against the Angels, which begins Monday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton kicked off a rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Tuesday and has gone 3-for-11 with a double, a walk, four RBI and three strikeouts through three games. He took a rest day Friday and was slated to play again Saturday but isn't in Somerset's lineup; however, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports that Yankees manager Aaron Boone had previously indicated that Stanton might sit due to unfavorable weather. Regardless, Stanton isn't expected to be in Boston for New York's series finale against the Red Sox on Sunday, so Monday looks like the most likely date for the slugger's MLB season debut.
