EDGE Analysis

Stanton has been on the injured list since June 23 due to a left hamstring strain. He wasn't assigned to any minor-league games as part of his rehab program, and the 34-year-old slugger appears poised to join the Yankees following the weekend series against the Red Sox. Stanton was slashing .304/.377/.551 with five home runs, 16 RBI and a .927 OPS in June before going on the IL.
