Giancarlo Stanton Not Ready Yet For A Rehab AssignmentMay 26, 2023 | 06:08 AM

New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) won't begin his rehab assignment this weekend, but it's still possible it could start early next week, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Originally, the 33-year-old was supposed to be ready by the weekend, but there might have been something in Thursday's tests that the club didn't like. Fantasy managers should be excited to get Stanton back, as before the injury, he was slashing .269/.296/.558 with four bombs, seven runs, and 11 RBI over 13 games and owns a career .890 OPS. Expect the slugger to return sometime at the beginning of June.
