Mike Stanton didn't aggravate his hamstring injury Friday but was pulled because he simply wasn't able to run at full speed.
"I can't put him out there if that's the fastest he can run," Marlins manager Jack McKeon said. It's certainly good news that Stanton, who sat out Saturday's game, didn't aggravate the malady, and McKeon indicated that it's possible the outfielder could return on Monday.

Mike Stanton (hamstring) is not in Saturday's lineup.
As expected. Stanton returned to the lineup Friday but made it through just three innings before aggravating his hamstring injury. It's not clear at this point how long he might be out, but it's possible it could be for a while.

Mike Stanton (hamstring) left Friday's game in the third inning after pulling up lame.
Stanton was clearly bothered by his hamstring, the same hammy which has bugged him for the last few days. At this point, the Marlins would be best served sidelining their star slugger until he's 110%, which could easily mean keeping him out of the lineup for the remainder of the season.

Mike Stanton (hamstring) is expected to return to the lineup Friday.
Stanton did some pregame running and agility drills Wednesday to test out his right hamstring, but he remained out of the lineup for the fourth straight game. He's available to pinch-hit, though, as he did Tuesday, and should be back in there Friday following Thursday's off day.
