In what has to be considered some shocking news, the Miami Marlins have activated outfielder Giancarlo Stanton from the disabled list. The star outfielder has been out since mid August with a groin strain. At the time of the injury, it was expected that Stanton would miss the remainder of the season. He's now apparently recovered much quicker than anyone anticipated. 

Stanton, 26, is hitting .244 with 25 homers and 70 RBI in 103 games this season.
