Giancarlo Stanton Won't Return During Next Road Trip
New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (calf) will take live batting practice again on Saturday and then continue to ramp up his running program, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. However, Stanton will not be activated from the 10-day injured list during the team's next road trip, according to manager Aaron Boone. The Yankees kick off their next road trip on Monday, June 8, in Cleveland, and it runs until Sunday, June 14, in Toronto. The right-handed power hitter continues to progress slowly from a strained calf and hasn't played for the Yankees since April 24. There's still plenty of power in Stanton's lumber, but durability issues continue to make him hard to keep rostered in shallow mixed leagues. Stanton is now rostered in less than 30% of Yahoo leagues. With Aaron Judge (ribs) potentially joining Stanton on the IL, the Yankees could be dangerously thin in the outfield going forward.
