Stanton is out of the lineup Monday against the Astros, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanton will take a seat in what likely amounts to day off to clear his head after going 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts during the Yankees' three-game series with the Angels over the weekend. He'll be replaced in the lineup by Neil Walker, who will serve as the club's designated hitter Monday and hit ninth.
