Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Stanton will be shut down for 7-10 days after suffering a left calf strain that is somehow believed to be the result of a hit by pitch suffered on a rehab assignment.

I can’t explain how a hit by pitch would cause a calf strain. Neither could Boone.

Stanton hasn’t played since March 31 due to a biceps injury and had been working toward a return. He simply cannot catch a break right now, but hopefully this won’t delay his return too long.
