Stanton sustained a groin injury in Saturday's game against the White Sox and is expected to be placed on the 15-day DL, ESPN.com's Buster Olney reports.
EDGE Analysis
After singling with two outs in the bottom of the ninth Saturday, Stanton tweaked his groin when he was thrown out at second base while attempting to stretch the hit into a double, ending the game. The Marlins evaluated him after the contest, and it appears the outfielder's injury is more significant than anticipated. Stanton's expected loss is a huge blow for the Marlins, who remain in the mix for a wild-card spot, so the team will just have to hope that he doesn't miss much more than the minimum 15 days. While Stanton remains out, Ichiro Suzuki should slide into an everyday role in the outfield.
