Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Sitting out amid slump

Stanton is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Blue Jays.

Stanton is in the middle of a 1-for-26 stretch at the plate to dip his OPS on the season below .700 for the first time in the second half. Aaron Judge will get a day in the designated hitter spot while Jake Bauers handles right field.
