After much delay, two injured Yankees could begin rehab assignments in the near future. That would be Giancarlo Stanton, who has yet to make his season debut after missing all of spring training with tennis elbows, and Marcus Stroman, who hasn’t pitched since April 11 due to knee inflammation.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone was not ready on Wednesday to announce the next steps for Giancarlo Stanton’s return from the injured list. But the slugger’s timetable is gradually becoming clearer.

The New York Yankees have fielded one of baseball's best offenses this season and it could get a major boost soon.Mostly thanks to superstar slugger Aaron Judge, the Yankees are leading Major League Baseball in on-base percentage with a top-two mark in total home runs and slugging percentage so far.
