I texted with him a little bit about it. He felt good about it, so we\u2019re moving in a good direction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"R3FPIJDNGVAJRLA74Q5GXVZ6HU\">Stanton probably will get a rest day on Thursday, then either continue playing another game or two for Somerset this weekend or come off the injured list and join the Yankees for their weekend series in Boston.<\/p>\n<p id=\"XXWYRHAZBNBWJI37H4SGTKGCUE\">\u201cWe\u2019ll see what the next step is for (Thursday) and then all through the weekend,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"WW2DNXHXZ5DTFC4ITID7V4UGIQ\">Sidelined since late April with a sore knee, Stroman departed after starting the fourth inning with a three-pitch strikeout. He threw 46 pitches, 27 for strikes.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6FZ24QELURGXPNEWDE26MBMLWM\">\u201cIt looked like Stroman was throwing a tough-and-feel bullpen,\u201d a scout in attendance texted NJ Advance Media.<\/p>\n<p id=\"R36WXGJ4RRG33AR42IHTXKPPTI\">According to a scout, Stroman was throwing mostly sinkers and cutters while mixing in an occasional changeup and curve.<\/p>\n<p id=\"P2QLDLBSSZEDPLIMCOEXLWJVYM\">Stroman worked a 1-2-3 first inning, then walked the leadoff hitter in the second and it led to a run on a two-out hit.<\/p>\n<p id=\"KAKPPRXFQJEW3FL5QP5E2FVAC4\">\u201cIt looks like a good step for him,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ZBAYN5VZLRGHLLD3TKYI2H5YCM\">Here are other recent NJ.com Yankees posts to check out:<\/p>\n<p id=\"SJTIKV7UM5AJFKCX5JYEZK2OMQ\">\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals playing a three-game series this week at Kauffman Stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":69238,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
