The New York Yankees activated Giancarlo Stanton from the injured list, the team announced Monday.

Stanton has been out since June 22 when he injured his hamstring rounding third base against the Miami Marlins.

In a corresponding move, the Yankees designated Jahmai Jones for assignment.

Stanton’s return comes at the perfect time for the Yankees, who just won a crucial series against the Boston Red Sox over the weekend to pull within one game of the Baltimore Orioles in the division.

Stanton was enjoying a bounce-back season in the middle of the Yankees lineup before the injury. His 120 OPS+ is the highest its been since the 2021 season, and he added 18 home runs and 45 RBI in 69 games.

Stanton is in the lineup Monday night against the Philadelphia Phillies, hitting fifth as the DH.
