Rendon will undergo season-ending surgery to repair his right wrist next week.
EDGE Analysis
Rendon was initially labeled as day-to-day after aggravating his right wrist injury Tuesday, but he'll ultimately be forced to miss the remainder of the season. It's the second consecutive year in which the 32-year-old will require a season-ending procedure. Prior to sustaining his injury, Rendon slashed .228/.324/.383 with five homers, 24 RBI, 15 runs and two stolen bases over 45 games. Matt Duffy and Luis Rengifo should see increased playing time now that Rendon has been ruled out for the season.

Rendon (wrist) was unavailable off the bench Thursday against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fletcher reported earlier in the day that Rendon was feeling better and could be available to pinch hit, according to manager Phil Nevin, but the third baseman was ultimately not ready to return to game action. Rendon was removed from Tuesday's game against the Dodgers after aggravating the right wrist issue, which first flared up in late May. Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reported Wednesday that Rendon could head back to the injured list if his wrist doesn't show improvement soon.

Rendon went 0-for-3 with a walk in Friday's loss to the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Rendon was activated from the injured list prior to the game and started at third base while batting third in the order. The veteran worked a walk in his third plate appearance but otherwise didn't make an impact offensively. Rendon is batting .237 on the season, putting him on pace for his worst average as a major-leaguer. He hit just .240 over 217 at-bats last season.

The 32-year-old was sidelined since May 27 but will reclaim his job as the Angels' everyday third baseman now that he's been activated.

EDGE Analysis
Rendon continues to take steps toward a return, though a definite timeline for his activation remains uncertain.

Rendon (wrist) took grounders before batting practice Monday, but a timetable for his return remains uncertain, the Associated Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rendon has been showing improvement, and a recent medical evaluation indicated that he is healing as expected. The third baseman went on the 10-day injured list with right wrist inflammation May 27 and is eligible to return, but it appears that he'll need additional time before rejoining the big-league club. It's uncertain if Rendon will need to go on a rehab assignment once he's able to play.
