Angels put 3B Rendon on injured list with wrist inflammation
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Los Angeles Angels have placed third baseman Anthony Rendon on the 10-day injured list due to right wrist inflammation. Rendon had been dealing with wrist issues for most of the season, but it got worse Thursday night during the seventh inning against the Toronto Blue Jays when he swung at an outside pitch. He had an MRI on Friday to determine what was next. It is the 31-year-old Rendon’s fourth stint on the IL in two seasons. He missed 96 games due to various injuries last year, including the final 76 due to a left hamstring strain he suffered in early July. Rendon was batting .242 this season, but was showing signs of warming up. He had 15 RBIs in May.
