Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Stanton (biceps) "hit off a machine with some intensity," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton had been limited to hitting off a tee, so this is a step forward for the slugger. Despite the positive progress, it remains to be seen whether Stanton will be ready to rejoin the Yankees during their upcoming west coast road trip, which begins Monday and runs through May 1. Look for a more concrete return date to come into focus once he begins to face live pitching.

Stanton (biceps) participated in some tee and soft-toss work Friday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton began swinging a bat Wednesday, and while it's good to see that he's slowly progressing, the Yankees still haven't released a concrete timetable for his return to game action. A return date should become more clear once he begins to face live pitching.

Stanton (biceps) has begun swinging a bat, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton is slightly ahead of schedule, as he wasn't originally expected to resume swinging until this weekend. The slugger is trending in the right direction, though he'll likely remain without a timetable for his return until he's further along in his rehab.

Stanton (biceps) could hit off a tee Wednesday or Friday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton appears to be slightly ahead of schedule, as he was previously not expected to resume swinging until this weekend. His return timeline could become clearer once the Yankees see how his tee work goes.

Stanton (biceps) could resume swinging a bat when the Yankees return to New York next weekend, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton is in the midst of a 10-day shutdown period before the Yankees clear him to start up baseball activities again. It's expected that he'll be limited to dry swings initially, but he could hit against soft-tossing pitching soon after that if he's healed from the left biceps strain as anticipated. The Yankees haven't ruled out a late-April return for the slugging outfielder.

Stanton (biceps) could return in three weeks, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was placed on the injured list with a biceps strain Monday and will avoid all baseball activities for 10 days. He'll then have to get back in game shape following that shutdown period, so a three-week absence appears to be a reasonable target. Clint Frazier should see regular game time in the near future with Aaron Hicks (back) also out.

Stanton will be shut down from all baseball activities for 10 days due to his strained left biceps, Brendan Kuty of NJ.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton reportedly suffered the injury while swinging. He'll still need to work his way back after the shutdown period, so the Yankees are currently framing his return date as "sometime this month."

Stanton was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left biceps strain Monday.

EDGE Analysis

It's not clear when Stanton suffered the injury, nor is it clear how long he's expected to be out. He'd managed just two hits through his first three games but had only received eight at-bats, as he walked seven times. Clint Frazier will take his place on the roster.

Stanton is hitting .333 with a home run, two RBI and three walks over his last 15 spring training at-bats.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton went hitless in his first four at-bats of the spring, but he's found his groove since March 1, launching a mammoth home run for his first long ball Friday. He's now sporting an excellent .417 on-base percentage in Grapefruit League play. For Stanton, the objective will be parlaying that into a stronger start to the regular season than he had last year, when he limped out of the gate to the tune of a .230/.313/.425 slash line in March and April.

Stanton is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton was originally set to bat cleanup as designated hitter as usual, but the Yankees made a late change to replace him with Miguel Andujar. Thankfully it's not an injury situation, as the team would just like to get Stanton a full day off since he has played in 158 games this season. The 28-year-old will close the regular season with a .266/.343/.509 slash line with 38 home runs, 100 RBI and 211 strikeouts in 617 at-bats.
