Giancarlo Stanton, the Yankees' veteran DH, is not close to returning due to a "low-grade" right calf strain, according to manager Aaron Boone. Stanton has not yet begun doing any kind of running and is still feeling the effects of the issue. The Yankees were hoping Stanton would be out for a shorter period due to the history of soft-tissue injuries in his legs.
