Baker's theory of logarithmic linear forms does yield a lower bound here of the shape $(\log{|x|})^{\kappa}$ for a small positive $\kappa > 0$, while the best possible statement $|y^2 - x^3| \gg_{\varepsilon} |x|^{\frac{1}{2}-\varepsilon}$ is a consequence of the ABC conjecture. Your general problem is a question about integral point on surfaces, and not much is known here (there has been some progress by Corvaja, Zannier). | |
