Giancarlo Stanton Injury: Unlikely to return next week
Stanton (elbows) has been taking at-bats at the Yankees' complex in Tampa, but manager Aaron Boone said the slugger is not likely to be ready to come off the injured list next week, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Stanton logged 6-to-7 at-bats in Tampa on Friday and was slated to continue similar activity through the weekend. It's unclear what the next step in his rehab will be, but Stanton could either continue working out in Tampa or head out on a minor-league rehab assignment. Based on Boone's comment, the veteran masher may be held out until at least the team's next road trip, which begins Tuesday, June 10 in Kansas City.
