The Yankees will likely decide on a date for Stanton's (hamstring) return from the 10-day injured list by the end of next week, MLB.com reports.
Stanton ran the bases on the field Friday in his most recent step toward recovering from a strained left hamstring. Manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that the slugger "is in a pretty good spot" in terms of his progress and indicated that a return is a matter of building stamina. The Yankees haven't determined whether Stanton will go on a rehab assignment -- if he forgoes that option, he could be back in the New York lineup at some point during their series in Boston that begins Friday.
