New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton suffered a setback while recovering from a left calf strain sustained on April 24.

Stanton was running the bases last week, when the injury flared up.

The Yankees had hoped Stanton would return from the injured list for the team's next homestand, but that is likely delayed.

"He felt a little something in there a day or two ago, so that's kind of slowed him down," manager Aaron Boone said. "I expected him back early in this homestand. That's in jeopardy now."

In 24 games this season, Stanton, 36, was batting .256 with three home runs, six doubles and 14 RBIs.

The Yankees are dealing with several key injuries to outfielders.

Reigning American League MVP Aaron Judge is on the IL with a right rib stress fracture and is expected to be out until July or August.

Outfielder Trent Grisham was also placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The team recalled Jasson Dominguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

"No getting around it, we've lost some key people," Boone said. "It's part of it. The (162 game schedule) is coming for you. I feel like we're way more equipped to deal with it than we have been in some years. It's a great opportunity for some of our young players."
