Fantasy Impact
Stanton has been sidelined since June 26 with a knee strain. The veteran slugger is not eligible to come off the IL until August 25 but more than likely will need longer before rejoining the Yankees lineup. It does not look like Stanton will be much help for fantasy owners this season.
