New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (foot) pinch hit during Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Twins in his first game action since he fouled a ball of his foot on Monday. The slugger came in with a runner on third in the eighth, but ultimately struck out after a lengthy nine-pitch at-bat. When manager Aaron Boone was asked postgame about Stanton's availability for Friday's game he replied with an unsatisfying "we'll see." It wouldn't be a surprise to see him get another breather tomorrow night, but he should start at some point this weekend with the second-place Rays in town.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller

The New York Yankees are not ruling out designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) being ready to return when he's eligible to come off the 60-day injured list in late May, according to manager Aaron Boone. The skipper also said Stanton's rehab will look different than most players since the team doesn't need to get him ready to play the field. The 35-year-old veteran slugger missed all of spring training and has yet to play in 2025 due to torn ligaments in both of his elbows, but he could have a shorter rehab assignment than most as just a hitter. He started taking batting practice late last month and appears to be getting close to facing live pitching, a notable step in the rehab process. The Yankees will surely be cautious with the oft-injured Stanton and will probably ease him into DH duties when he returns. Stanton's eventual return will mostly be bad news for Ben RiceUPDATE: Stanton took live batting practice on Tuesday and will continue workouts in New York on the team's upcoming West Coast road trip.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The New York Yankees transferred outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Thursday to make room for outfielder Bryan De La Cruz on the 40-man roster after he was claimed off waivers from the Atlanta Braves. It's merely a procedural move and won't really change Stanton's timetable to make his 2025 debut. The 35-year-old veteran power hitter is dealing with tennis elbow in both of his arms and still doesn't have a specific timeline for his potential return to the big-league roster. The good news is that he recently started taking batting practice, but Stanton has yet to be cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment, meaning we probably won't see him until at least June. In the meantime, the left-handed-hitting Ben Rice will continue to benefit as the Yankees' primary DH.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that there are no new plans for outfielder/designated Giancarlo Stanton (elbows). Stanton stayed back in New York during the team's road trip to continue ramping up. The 35-year-old veteran power hitter took batting practice last Tuesday for the first time since he had several rounds of platelet-rich plasma injections in both of his elbows. Things continue to go slowly for Stanton while he deals with torn tendons in both of his elbows, and there's still the potential that he won't play at all this season if he has any kind of setback. Until then, though, he needs to be held in most fantasy leagues due to his power potential when healthy. There remains no timeline for his potential return, which means he'll likely be out until at least June. In the meantime, Ben Rice should continue to benefit from regular at-bats in the DH spot.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) took outdoor batting practice on Tuesday for the first time since receiving multiple rounds of platelet-rich plasma injections in his ailing elbows, according to NJ Advance Media's Brendan Kuty. It's progress for the 35-year-old veteran right-handed slugger, but he still has a ways to go and will eventually need to go on a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment before having a chance to make his 2025 season debut in the Bronx. There remains no timetable for a potential return, but fantasy managers that drafted him in the spring must continue to stash him in an injured-list spot until further notice. With Ben Rice swinging the bat well early on for the Yankees as the team's primary DH, it's unclear exactly how playing time will shake out for Stanton if/when he returns to the team.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
