Stanton went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Thursday's win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
He just refuses to slow down. Stanton's now slashing .345/.433/.893 with 14 homers and 27 RBI through 22 games in August, and his 47 blasts on the season is the most by an NL player before September since Ryan Howard swatted 49 in 2006.

Stanton went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
His seventh-inning shot off Jacob deGrom proved to be crucial and provided the Marlins with insurance runs they would need after the Mets answered back with three runs in the eighth. Stanton now has a league-leading 45 homers on the year, including an incredible 12 in 18 games through August.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 9-4 loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
He's now homered in six straight games, giving him a league-leading 44 on the season and leaving him two games shy of the major-league record held by Ken Griffey Jr. Dale Long and his own manager Don Mattingly. Stanton's 1.022 OPS also places him fifth in MLB, while his 94 RBI has him currently in third place behind Nolan Arenado and Nelson Cruz.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three RBI during Monday's win over San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Stanton has now left the yard in five consecutive games and has 10 homers, 17 RBI and 13 runs over his past 11 outings. The power outburst has him running away with the league lead in home runs, and he's also up to an impressive .283/.374/.640 slash line for the campaign.

EDGE Analysis
Stanton blasted his 41st homer of the year to break up a tie game in the fourth inning of the game the Marlins would go on to win. The slugger is having an amazing season along with excellent health, and his OPS currently sits at an elite .631.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The slugger's 40th of the season was a typical Giancarlo smash, as he drove a line drive into the second deck in left-center field. There are few things scarier to pitchers than a locked-in Stanton, and with 14 homers in 26 games since the All-Star break, it's a wonder he hasn't been walked more than 17 times over that stretch.

Stanton supplied all the Marlins' offense Thursday, going 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 3-2 loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old just won't let up on opposing pitchers -- Stanton is now slashing .308/.379/1.038 over the last week with six homers and 11 RBI, and he continues to extend his MLB lead with 39 home runs on the season. The hot streak has also pushed his OPS up to a career-high .982, and as long as he stays healthy down the stretch there's no reason to expect him to slow down much when it comes to putting souvenirs in the seats.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
He's been impressive so far in August, slashing .364/.440/1.000 in six games with four homers and taking over the major-league lead in that category from the Yankees' Aaron Judge. Stanton has already tied his previous career high with 37 blasts, and his current .981 OPS would also be a personal best.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
He now leads the majors with 35 homers, and his second blast of the game -- a 477-foot bomb to center field -- was the longest hit in SunTrust Field to date. Stanton is now just two home runs shy of his previous career high, and the only thing that might stand between him and a 50-HR campaign is his notoriously bad luck with injuries.

Stanton is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Marlins will look to complete their four-game sweep of the Reds without their star right fielder, as Stanton will receive his first day of rest since July 6. Ichiro Suzuki will take over in right field, batting seventh.
