Stanton (shoulder) moved his rehab assignment up to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday as expected.
EDGE Analysis
The slugger is nearly ready to return from the injuries which shut him down just three games into the season. He certainly looked no worse for wear in three games with High-A Tampa, going 5-for-10 with four homers. Stanton could be back in New York as soon as Tuesday.

Manager Aaron Boone said Stanton (shoulder) could be activated as soon as Tuesday, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton has already appeared in a pair of rehab games with High-A Tampa, going 4-for-7 with three homers. Per Lindsey Adler of The Athletic, the slugger is scheduled to shift his rehab to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this weekend, and if everything goes well during a pair of games with the RailRiders, Stanton could be cleared to rejoin the Yankees on Tuesday after receiving an off day Monday.

Stanton (shoulder) will play for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this weekend and could return for the Yankees' next homestand starting June 17, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton is currently on rehab duty with High-A Tampa, and manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday the slugger will join the RailRiders this weekend and could return to the big club as soon as June 17, when the Yankees open up a 10-game homestand with a divisional matchup against the Rays. Stanton went 2-for-4 with an opposite-field homer for Tampa on Tuesday, so hopefully that's a sign he's finally back to full health from the shoulder and calf injuries that have kept him on the shelf for most of the season.

Stanton (shoulder) is scheduled to make rehab appearances with High-A Tampa on Tuesday and Wednesday before joining Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton hasn't played a live game since tweaking his calf while making a rehab appearance for his shoulder injury, but manager Aaron Boone said Monday that the slugger will slot in for a pair of games this week for Tampa. Assuming he comes through those appearances with no setbacks, the plan is for Stanton to join the RailRaiders after a Thursday off-day. It's been a long absence for the veteran, so he could require a few games in Triple-A before returning to the big club.

Stanton (shoulder) could begin a rehab assignment Monday or Tuesday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton played just three games this season before dealing with biceps, shoulder and calf injuries. The length of his absence means his rehab assignment is unlikely to be brief, though the Yankees have yet to give a precise timetable for his return.

Stanton (shoulder) has been running and getting closer to a rehab assignment, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton will head to Tampa on Sunday to begin the next step in his recovery. It's unclear exactly what he'll need to show the team prior to beginning a rehab assignment, but manager Aaron Boone once again asserted that Stanton is getting closer to live game action. A mid-June return remains possible if all goes well for Stanton in the next week.

Stanton (shoulder) is close to facing live pitching and could soon begin a rehab assignment, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton resumed baseball activities Thursday after being pulled from his rehab assignment May 21 with a calf strain. The 29-year-old played only one rehab game prior to suffering the new injury, so he'll still likely require a week or two in the minors to get back up to speed after the extended absence from the shoulder strain. Mid-June appears to be a realistic possibility for his return if all goes well.

Stanton (shoulder) ran and hit in the cage Thursday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton had been shut down from baseball activities after suffering a calf strain last week, so this is an encouraging step for the veteran slugger. Manager Aaron Boone is hoping Stanton will be able to ramp up to live batting practice soon, at which point an updated timetable for his return will hopefully emerge.

Stanton (shoulder) will be shut down for 7-to-10 days with a calf strain, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The long end of that timetable would mean Stanton won't participate in baseball activities until June 1, and he will need another week or two after that to finish his rehab and get up to speed after missing a couple months with a shoulder injury. Per Adler, Stanton believes the calf injury is a result of when he was hit by a pitch a couple days ago while taking live batting practice, which only makes this a more frustrating situation.

Stanton's (shoulder) rehab assignment was put on hold Tuesday due to left calf tightness.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton is already onto his third injury of the season, as he strained his shoulder while recovering from a biceps strain and now suffered a calf injury while recovering from the shoulder issue. He made it through one rehab game before the assignment had to be paused. The severity of this latest setback remains unclear.
