​The Yankees are looking forward to getting their big three sluggers — Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton — back before the end of the season, and manager Aaron Boone shed some light on the order of returns, at least what the team is seeing so far.Speaking with the media ahead of the Yankees’ series opener with the Mariners, including the Daily News’ Gary Phillips, Boone was asked whether they expect the order of returns to be Bellinger, Stanton and Judge. The Yankees skipper said that’s “probably” the order.Bellinger (left hamstring strain) was placed on the IL back on July 26. The diagnosis was a Grade 2 strain, so the team expects a 4-to-6-week stint on the IL. Boone said Tuesday that the All-Star outfielder is not “too far off” but is still dealing with some tightness. Bellinger was slashing .259/.350/.420 with an OPS of .770 to go along with his 11 home runs and 53 RBI across 102 games this season.As for Stanton, Boone said there’s “a chance” that the slugger will need a rehab assignment. Stanton was placed on the IL with a right calf strain in late April. The slugger reinjured his calf in June, pushing his recovery time back.Stanton has only managed 24 games, hitting three home runs and driving in 14 runs while slashing .256/.302/.422 with a .724 OPS. However, Stanton has been doing more baseball activities of late, including running the bases before Tuesday’s game. Giancarlo Stanton is running the bases pic.twitter.com/yNO0ALixvz— Chris Kirschner (@ChrisKirschner) August 11, 2026So what’s the timeline look like?Well, Judge has begun “light activity” as he recovers from a right rib stress fracture that has kept him out of action since May 31. Judge told reporters on Aug. 5 that he still expects to play this season. With how carefully the Yankees have handled Judge’s injury, a return prior to September doesn’t seem likely. Four weeks from Bellinger’s 4-6-week timeline puts him at around Aug. 23.Carlos Rodon rehabBoone confirmed that the southpaw will need at least one more rehab start. And that start will come Thursday, Aug. 13, with Double-A Somerset.Rodon tossed 2.2 innings (48 pitches) with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre back on Aug. 8. In that start, Rodon allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out four batters.With a full rotation, it’s unclear how the Yankees will handle Rodon’s return, but Boone previously threw out the idea that Rodon could be a piggyback situation when he pitches in the big leagues as he continues to build back up. Kervin Castro lands on ILAhead of Tuesday’s series opener, the Yankees placed Castro (right elbow neuritis) on the 15-day IL and called up right-hander Bradley Hanner. Castro has appeared in five games with the Yankees this season, pitching to a 1.42 ERA while striking out eight batters across 6.1 innings pitched. Hanner, 27, has pitched to a 2.10 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP in his 40 appearances with Scranton this season. Whenever he gets into a game, it’ll be Hann
