MLB Trade Rumors
The Angels announced they’ve placed first baseman
Jared Walsh on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 27, with a right intercostal strain. Right-hander
Austin Warren has been selected to the roster in his place. Additionally, Los Angeles recalled infielder
There’s no timetable for Walsh’s return, although any absence is a tough blow to an Angels club on the outskirts of the Wild Card race. Los Angeles enters play tonight five games back of the Athletics for the American League’s final playoff spot, with the Mariners, Yankees, Blue Jays and Indians all above them in the pecking order. They’ll have to go at least the next week-plus without their All-Star first baseman, who has hit .266/.320/.516 with 22 home runs over 394 plate appearances.
