BHQ take: Well, this was a surprise. Instead of perhaps being activated for the last week to 10 days of the season, Stanton's back for the last few weeks. For now, Stanton will only be pinch hitting, so we're not restoring all of the playing time we stripped away last month. Of course, when (if?) Stanton starts playing regularly, or even semi-regularly, more time will be restored.  —Phil Hertz
