Stanton (shoulder) went 1-for-3 with a home run and two strikeouts in his rehab appearance for High-A Tampa on Monday, Conor Foley of The Times-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first rehab start, Stanton homered in his second at-bat for Tampa before getting pulled from the contest in the seventh inning. It was a good first step for the veteran slugger, who will likely make more rehab appearances in the minors this week and hopefully be able to make a return to the big club before the start of June.

Stanton (shoulder) reported to High-A Tampa on Monday to begin a rehab assignment.

EDGE Analysis

As anticipated, the Yankees cleared Stanton to move to the final phase of his recovery from the shoulder injury he incurred while rehabbing the strained biceps that first forced him to the injured list April 1. Stanton checked out fine while facing live pitching over the weekend and will now test out his health by taking swings in a non-controlled setting. He'll presumably work as a designated hitter for Tampa first before seeing action in the outfield, but the Yankees haven't formally outlined his rehab schedule just yet. In any case, Stanton would seem poised to return to the Yankees before the end of the month if he avoids any further setbacks.

EDGE Analysis

He was hit on the knee by a pitch Friday, but he checked out OK. Stanton will head to High-A Tampa for his rehab assignment Monday, assuming everything goes smoothly over the next couple days. It is unclear how long the assignment will be, but it seems possible that he could be an option in weekly leagues for the final week of May.

Stanton's official diagnosis is a left shoulder strain, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees have been vague about the exact nature of Stanton's injury, with manager Aaron Boone giving evasive answers when he was asked Tuesday, but the club later clarified the outfielder is dealing with a strain to the shoulder that has been keeping him out of action. There's still no timetable for a return for Stanton, however, he's started to face live pitching and do defensive work at extended spring training, which hopefully means there's a rehab stint in his near future.

EDGE Analysis

This marks a step in the right direction for Stanton, who had been limited to soft toss and tee work prior to his live BP session. The slugger also did some defensive work, though it remains to be seen when he'll return to game action. A timetable for Stanton's return will hopefully come into focus once he's cleared to begin a rehab stint.

Stanton (shoulder) remains limited to soft toss and tee work, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton could be cleared to hit off a machine soon if he experiences no setbacks in the coming days. The veteran slugger is taking baby steps in his recovery from a shoulder injury that he suffered while rehabbing a biceps strain. An updated timetable for Stanton's return likely won't emerge until he's further along in his rehab.

Manager Aaron Boone said Stanton (shoulder) will start ramping up his activities Monday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton will go through a pair of "light" workouts Saturday and Sunday, and if everything goes off without a hitch, the veteran slugger will be cleared to ramp things up from there. Look for an updated timetable for his return to emerge once he's cleared to increase his activities.

Stanton is fully recovered from his biceps strain but received a cortisone injection in his left shoulder, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton has been out since the start of April with the left biceps strain and isn't expected to begin ramping up his swinging until the Red Sox arrive in Arizona next Tuesday. The nature of the shoulder issue and his recovery timetable remains unclear, but Stanton seems likely to remain sidelined for the next couple of weeks, at least.

Stanton (biceps) has continued to make solid progress, although he'll likely need to complete a rehab assignment prior to returning and could be out for another 10 days, SNY reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton still hasn't played in the month of April due to a biceps strain, but he's trending in the right direction. "He's swinging the bat, he's having great batting practice sessions." stated general manager Brian Cashman. "He is responding well and feeling stronger." When asked if Stanton is at least 10 days from returning, Cashman responded with "maybe." Though this statement from the team's GM is vague, it sounds unlikely that the slugger will be back with the team before proving his health on a rehab stint. According to SNY, Stanton could be headed to Florida for more rehab later in the week before embarking on a minor-league assignment.

Stanton (biceps) could return during the Yankees' upcoming road trip, which runs from April 22 to May 1, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
