  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Makes wild-card roster

    The Yankees activated Stanton (calves) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

    Stanton has been sidelined since late April due to injuries to both calves, but he increased his baseball activities enough in recent days to convince the Yankees to carry him on their American League Wild Card Series roster against the Red Sox. The 36-year-old could be limited primarily to a pinch-hitting role for the Yankees.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Does some running Monday

    Stanton (calves) ran the bases at Yankee Stadium on Monday in addition to taking live batting practice, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Stanton hasn't played in a game since late April, first due to a right calf strain and later because of a strain to his left calf. However, he's improved enough that he's under consideration for the Yankees' wild-card roster versus the Red Sox.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Taking live BP

    Stanton (calf) is taking live batting practice at Double-A Somerset with the possibility of being available in some capacity for next week's AL Wild Card Series, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

    Stanton will close the regular season on the 60-day injured list after straining his left calf in August while rehabbing a right calf strain. Despite the ongoing injury issues, it sounds like Stanton could serve as the designated hitter or perhaps as a bench bat during the first round of the playoffs. Aaron Judge (calf) is not expected to be ready for the wild-card round.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Yankees transferred Stanton (calf) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

    The veteran slugger was working his way back from a right calf strain last week when he suffered a moderate strain of his left calf, further delaying his return from the injured list. This transaction doesn't mean much given that Stanton has already been sidelined well beyond the 60-day minimum. After suffering the setback, manager Aaron Boone indicated it will be "challenging" for the 36-year-old to make it back before the end of the regular season, per Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Strains left calf while running bases

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that Stanton sustained a moderate left calf while running the bases Thursday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

    Stanton has been on the injured list since April 28 due to a strained right calf, but his other calf is now the bigger concern after he strained it while falling down during his most recent baserunning session. The Yankees haven't yet ruled out a return for Stanton later this season, but Boone admitted that it will be difficult for the veteran slugger to return before the end of the campaign as a result of his latest setback.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Runs bases, but rehab assignment date TBD

    Manager Aaron Boone said that Stanton (calf) did some baserunning Saturday, but the Yankees remain uncertain when the five-time All-Star will be ready to begin a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports.

    In addition to running the bases, Stanton has been taking live batting practice as he gears up for a late-season return from a right calf strain, which has kept him on the 10-day injured list since April 28. The Yankees will likely wait and see how Stanton responds to several days of workouts before potentially mapping out a rehab schedule for him, after which a clearer target date for his activation could become available. After the Yankees added a left-handed bat in Luis Garcia at the trade deadline, Stanton could be ticketed for the short side of a platoon at designated hitter once he eventually returns from the IL.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Starts light baserunning

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that Stanton (calf) "started the introduction to [running] some bases," MLB.com reports.

    In addition to taking live batting practice, Stanton had already been doing some running in the outfield. His ability to begin a baserunning progression represents another step forward as he works his way back from a right calf strain, which has kept him on the shelf since April 28. The Yankees remain optimistic that Stanton will be activated from the injured list before the end of August, but a clearer target date for his return likely won't come into focus until he heads out on a rehab assignment.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Faces live pitching

    Stanton (calf) took swings against Carlos Rodon (elbow) on Monday, MLB.com reports.

    Stanton has been swinging a bat for some time, but that doesn't necessarily gauge where he's at in his recovery from a strained right calf. Still, standing in against Rodon suggests that the slugger is making progress, and he could log more live at-bats Tuesday versus recovering hurler Clarke Schmidt (elbow). Stanton also did some jogging in the Yankee Stadium outfield Monday, and the hope remains that he'll be ready for activation off the IL before the end of August.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: No timeline for return

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Monday that Stanton (calf) has "no timeline" to start a minor-league rehab assignment, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Stanton has been sidelined by a right calf strain since April 24. He resumed running right before the All-Star break after receiving a PRP injection, but the veteran slugger has not progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment. The Yankees should have a better sense of Stanton's return timeline once he's cleared to play in minor-league games.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Resumes running after PRP injection

    Yankees GM Brian Cashman said Thursday that Stanton (calf) has resumed running after receiving a PRP injection, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    The 36-year-old has been sidelined since late April due to recurring calf issues. He initially suffered a strained right calf before suffering a new strain in the same calf while rehabbing last month. It's unclear what kind of timeline Stanton is looking at for his potential return to the lineup. He slashed .256/.302/.422 with three home runs, 14 RBI, eight runs scored, one stolen base and a 6:29 BB:K across 96 trips to the plate before going down with the injuries.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Yet to resume running since setback

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that Stanton (calf) has yet to resume running since he suffered a setback with his strained right calf in early June, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    Stanton has been doing some work on the treadmill, but he's not ready to run on the field yet and there's no timetable for him to do so. Boone added Monday that he expects Stanton to return at some point later this season, but no timeline for the designated hitter's activation will surface until he's able to ramp up activities with no encumbrances.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Resumes running program

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that Stanton (calf) has restarted a running program and will take live at-bats against rehabbing left-hander Max Fried (elbow) on Tuesday, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

    Stanton paused his running program after experiencing a setback with his strained right calf June 11, so the Yankees could have the 36-year-old ramp up more deliberately this time around before he starts sprinting at full speed. Since Stanton has been on the shelf since April 28 due to the calf injury, he'll presumably need to complete a minor-league rehab assignment before making his return from the 10-day injured list. Stanton appears unlikely to rejoin the New York lineup until after the All-Star break.
