Exits with trainer
Stanton was removed from Friday's game against the Astros with right lower-leg tightness, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Analyse
Stanton didn't seem to be very comfortable running from second base to third on J.C. Escarra's sixth-inning single, so the Yankees' training staff made the call to take the former out of the contest. If the veteran slugger ends up needing to sit down for another game or two, Randal Grichuk could be in line for extra starts in the outfield or at DH.

Homers, drives in three Tuesday
Stanton went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, three RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Red Sox.
Analyse
Stanton accounted for most of the offense for the Yankees, swatting a solo homer to lead off the top of the second inning before driving in two more with a double in the sixth. Stanton has now homered in two of his last four games after going 15 games without a long ball. He's slashing .253/.306/418 with three home runs, 13 RBI, seven runs scored, one stolen base and a 6:25 BB:K across 85 plate appearances.

Idle for series finale
Stanton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
Analyse
Stanton will hit the bench for the second Sunday in a row, as the Yankees will give the veteran slugger some rest after he had started each of the last six days while going 3-for-25 (.120 average) with one home run, two RBI and an additional run over that stretch. Ben Rice will replace Stanton in the lineup as the Yankees' designated hitter.
