Giancarlo Stanton (ankle) is in the Marlins' starting lineup on Monday afternoon versus the Cubs. Stanton tweaked his right ankle Sunday on a third-inning groundout. It was never a major concern for Miami.

Giancarlo Stanton is dealing with a minor ankle injury. Stanton injured his right ankle Sunday on a groundout in the third inning and was eventually removed from game. The Marlins don't believe it's anything serious and are listing him as day-to-day, but he could be held out of Monday's lineup.

He's now hit safely in 13 of his last 14 games, collecting four home runs in that span. Unfortunately because of the lineup around him, he's only recorded six RBI in that span.

Stanton's 16th home run, a solo shot off Zack Greinke in the first inning, was the beginning and end of the Marlins offense on Wednesday. It was his third home run in his last five games.

He's been heating up recently, as he's got a seven-game hit streak in which he's 10-for-30 (.333) with two home runs and five runs scored.

The Miami Herald's Clark Spencer reports that the Marlins didn't receive a trade offer from the Pirates for Giancarlo Stanton. Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review previously reported that the Pirates made a "significant offer" for Stanton that "caught the attention of the Marlins' front office." Spencer is saying that didn't happen, though he did add that the Fish received many offers for the outfielder. If he does ever go on the block, there will no doubt be a bevy of teams that try to put together a package for him.

Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports that the Pirates made a "significant offer" for Giancarlo Stanton that "caught the attention of the Marlins' front office." Biertempfel says the Pirates "made repeated attempts to work a deal" for the outfielder. It's not clear what they offered, but the Bucs have enough pieces in their farm system to put together an enticing package. Biertempfel notes that they also made a run at Mark Trumbo but were told the Angels weren't interested in dealing him.
