Stanton (groin) could return to the Marlins for the last week of the season if his rehab goes "absolutely perfect," Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports.

The news gives the Marlins a sliver of optimism that Stanton might be back to full health by the time the Marlins begin a potential playoff series, but for fantasy purposes, it's probably best for those in most single-season leagues to cut bait with the slugger in exchange for a healthier player. Since Stanton has yet to resume baseball activities, we're still likely a week or more away from learning if the 26-year-old will even have a shot at meeting a best-case scenario for his return timetable.
