Stanton is not in the lineup for Monday's game versus the Royals, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Aaron Judge will occupy the designated-hitter spot Monday while Jasson Dominguez picks up a start in the outfield after being called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Stanton is in the midst of a 1-for-19 slide at the plate and could see his playing time dip upon Dominguez's arrival, though manager Aaron Boone told Laura Albanese of Newsday that Stanton will serve as the Yankees' DH more often that not. With that in mind, Alex Verdugo -- who will start in left field Monday -- could find himself as the odd man out of the lineup more frequently than Stanton.

Stanton went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees' big sluggers were at their best in the seventh inning, as Stanton had the third of three consecutive homers, following Juan Soto and Aaron Judge. This was Stanton's third game in a row with a long ball, giving him 23 on the year. The slugger is up to a .245/.305/.495 slash line with 57 RBI, 41 runs scored and 13 doubles across 88 contests this season, which is decent production given his downward trend over the previous two campaigns.
