Giancarlo Stanton took live batting practice Wednesday for the first time since straining his right hamstring.

"He looked good," manager Mike Redmond said afterward. "I’m just going off the results. He was hitting them out. It’s another encouraging sign that he’s a little closer to being back on the field." Stanton has been on the disabled list since April 30 and is still without a timetable. The best guess is that he's activated around mid-June. May 23 - 9:00 AM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) could begin jogging sometime next week.

That's what Marlins skipper Mike Redmond told reporters on Saturday afternoon. Stanton has been on the disabled list since April 30 with a severe right hamstring strain and is being limited currently to pool workouts. There is no timetable for his return to Miami.

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) remains limited to running in a pool.

There's no timetable for when he might be ready to resume baseball activities. "No baseball activity but he’s running in the pool," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "I just go by what they tell me. From what I’ve heard, it’s a similar type of strain from what (Casey) Kotchman has. It’s taken a while for him. We really don’t have a time frame. It just depends on how fast he heals and how fast he feels like he can get back on the field."

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Marlins manager Mike Redmond indicated Friday that Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) "a ways off" and that there is currently no timetable for his return.

Obviously with the Marlins already out of contention, there is no need for them to rush their franchise superstar back to the lineup earlier than he needs to. Marcel Ozuna will continue to fill in while Stanton is sidelined.

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

An MRI taken Tuesday on Giancarlo Stanton's injured right hamstring revealed a Grade 2 strain.

It's a fairly severe injury that will likely sideline Stanton for more than three weeks. He was officially placed on the disabled list Tuesday afternoon. The Marlins called up Marcell Ozuna to provide needed depth in the outfield.

Apr 30 - 4:12 PM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Marlins placed OF Giancarlo Stanton on the 15-day disabled list with a right hamstring strain.

Stanton was injured during Monday's extra-innings win over the Mets when he hurt himself while running to first on a groundout. He was able to walk off the field with a little limp, but more won't be known about how long he'll be sidelined until he undergoes an MRI. The Fish have called up Marcell Ozuna, and he figures to play regularly in right field.

Apr 30 - 2:20 AM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton left Monday's game with a right hamstring injury.

Stanton grabbed the hamstring and fell to the ground in pain after he grounded out in the 10th. He was able to put weight on the leg as he exited the field with a trainer, but a trip to the disabled list is almost certainly coming. The Marlins should update his status after the game.

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton went 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs in Sunday's win over the Cubs.

Stanton got the scoring going for the Marlins with a two-run shot in the first, he tied the game up with an RBI single in the sixth and finally capped off his day with a solo shot in the eighth. After a slow start, the slugger has now gone deep three times over the last two contests, and he's raised his average from .163 to .243 over the last seven games.

Apr 28 - 4:15 PM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton slugged his first home run of the season Saturday in the Marlins' loss to the Cubs.

The first-inning bomb cleared the scoreboard in left field at Marlins Park and was estimated at 440 feet. Stanton is beginning to find his power stroke and is definitely capable of going on a tear. Buy low if you still can.

Apr 27 - 10:11 PM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton went 2-for-4 with two RBI in the Marlins' 8-5 win over the Twins on Tuesday.

It's been tough sledding for Stanton in the early going, as the two hits raised his average to .200 on the young season. A shoulder contusion is partly to blame for his struggles -- he missed a week of games due to the injury, and he has yet to hit a home run this season. Between the injury and his supporting cast, it's tough not to get discouraged about Stanton's outlook. Even so, the power is there and when it returns, he will get his share of home runs.

Apr 24 - 12:34 AM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (shoulder) is back in the Marlins' starting lineup on Thursday against the Reds.

Stanton wound up missing a whole week because of a left shoulder contusion. He is batting just .167/.342/.233 with 12 strikeouts in nine games played this season, but the young slugger can get it going in a hurry.

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (shoulder) is expected to return to the Marlins' starting lineup Thursday in Cincinnati.

Stanton is missing a sixth straight game Wednesday due to a left shoulder contusion. The young slugger was batting just .167 with a .575 OPS in nine games before the injury but should be able to get his bat going quickly.

Apr 17 - 4:37 PM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (shoulder) is out of the lineup for the sixth straight game Wednesday.

Stanton was able to take batting practice Tuesday without any issues, so he could return within the next day or two. Austin Kearns will start in his place in right field Wednesday.

Apr 17 - 2:55 PM

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton (shoulder) is out of the Marlins' lineup again Tuesday.

Stanton hasn't played since last Wednesday due to a left shoulder contusion, but he's expected to take some swings prior to Tuesday's game. The hope is that he won't have to miss much more time. Chris Coghlan will take his place in right field Tuesday.

Giancarlo Stanton - OF - Marlins

Giancarlo Stanton will test out his ailing left shoulder with some swings prior to Tuesday's game.

Stanton hasn't played since last Wednesday because of a left shoulder contusion, but he's feeling much better and it sounds like he could be back in there as soon as Tuesday. "It’s gotten significantly better," Stanton said. "Before I couldn’t even lift my arm up at all. Each day is better. It feels like it’s being compressed or pinched."

Depth Charts

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Rob Brantly
	2	Jeff Mathis
	3	Miguel Olivo
1B	1	Logan Morrison D.L. Logan Morrison (knee) will shift his rehab assignment to Double-A Jacksonville on Monday. Morrison has spent the past week with the High-A Jupiter Hammerheads, collecting three hits and one RBI in 13 at-bats. He's working his way back from September surgery to repair a torn patella tendon in his right knee and is currently aiming to join the Marlins in early June. NL-only leaguers might want to stash him now. May 23
	2	Casey Kotchman D.L. Marlins manager Mike Redmond said Casey Kotchman (hamstring) could begin a rehab assignment "in the next few days." Kotchman is finally feeling improvement with his strained left hamstring. He was moved to the 60-day DL last week, though, so he won't be eligible to return until June. May 14
	3	Joe Mahoney D.L. Joe Mahoney (hamstring) is expected to begin playing in rehab games Sunday at Triple-A New Orleans. Mahoney was placed on the disabled list April 28 with a right hamstring strain. He'll beat Logan Morrison (knee) back to the Marlins' active roster but will probably be sent back to Triple-A when LoMo is deemed fully healthy. Mahoney, 26, carries no fantasy value. May 23
2B	1	Donovan Solano D.L. Donovan Solano's strained left intercostal muscle remains sore. There's no timetable for when he'll resume baseball activities, let alone when he'll return from the DL. Derek Dietrich will continue to serve as the primary second baseman for the Marlins. May 14
	2	Chris Valaika D.L. Chris Valaika underwent successful surgery on Friday, having two pins inserted into his wrist. Valaika is expected to require 4-6 weeks of healing time before he's able to return to the Marlins. He had been virtually ineffective in his 22 games before the injury, hitting .219/.261/.344 with one homer and nine RBI. May 10
	3	Derek Dietrich
	4	Nick Green
SS	1	Adeiny Hechavarria
3B	1	Placido Polanco
	2	Greg Dobbs
LF	1	Juan Pierre
	2	Austin Kearns D.L. Marlins transferred OF Austin Kearns to the restricted list. Kearns was already on the bereavement list, so it's just a procedural move to give him more time. Kyle Skipworth has taken Kearns' spot on the roster. May 12
	3	Matt Diaz D.L. Marlins placed OF Matt Diaz on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 19, with a left knee contusion. Diaz should be ready to return to the active roster as soon as he's eligible. The 35-year-old is batting just .167/.211/.222 in 10 games this season with the Marlins. May 20
	4	Jordan Brown
CF	1	Chris Coghlan
	2	Justin Ruggiano
RF	1	Giancarlo Stanton D.L. Giancarlo Stanton took live batting practice Wednesday for the first time since straining his right hamstring. "He looked good," manager Mike Redmond said afterward. "I’m just going off the results. He was hitting them out. It’s another encouraging sign that he’s a little closer to being back on the field." Stanton has been on the disabled list since April 30 and is still without a timetable. The best guess is that he's activated around mid-June. May 23
	2	Marcell Ozuna
	3	Alfredo Silverio D.L. Marlins placed OF Alfredo Silverio on the 60-day disabled list with a sprained right elbow. It's not clear how long the Rule 5 pick will be out. Silverio missed the entire 2012 season after injuring his neck and back in an auto accident. Mar 31
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Ricky Nolasco
	2	Nathan Eovaldi D.L. Marlins manager Mike Redmond said Thursday that Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) has been progressing with his long-toss program. It's not clear when Eovaldi will be ready to throw from a mound, but he's moving in the right direction. The right-hander looks to be a little behind Henderson Alvarez, who should be ready to rejoin the Marlins' rotation in mid-May. Apr 26
	3	Kevin Slowey Sidelined Kevin Slowey left Wednesday's start against the Phillies after the fifth inning with a left lat strain. The Marlins are calling him day-to-day, so it's evidently a minor strain. He will be reevaluated on Thursday before it's determined whether he can make his next start. Slowey was pitching well Wednesday before getting hurt, tossing five innings of one-run ball on six hits and no walks while recording six strikeouts. May 22
	4	Jose Fernandez
	5	Alex Sanabia
	6	Henderson Alvarez D.L. Marlins transferred RHP Henderson Alvarez from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move clears a spot for Nick Green on the active roster. Alvarez recently had a setback with his shoulder and isn't close to returning. May 7
	7	Tom Koehler
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Steve Cishek
	2	Mike Dunn
	3	Ryan Webb
	4	Chad Qualls
	5	A.J. Ramos
	6	Duane Below
	7	Wade LeBlanc
	8	Jose Ceda D.L. Marlins placed RHP Jose Ceda on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury. The hard-throwing right-hander is working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He should be ready for game action when his 60 days are up. Mar 31
