Miami Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton is likely out for the rest of the season after MRI results showed a Grade 3 strain to his left groin on Sunday.
"It's a Grade 3 strain of his groin," Marlins president of baseball operations Michael Hill said to reporters Sunday. "We're going to rehab it, and best-case scenario is a six-week return. Obviously, there is still opportunity for G to be back this season's end. But obviously, it was a significant injury and we'll see how rehab goes."
Stanton, who has faced a bevy of injuries in his young career, was injured on the final play of the Marlins' 8-7 loss to the White Sox Saturday.
