The Angels placed Rendon on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to July 27, due to lower-back inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old sat out Saturday and Sunday, so the injury presumably flared up during or after Friday's matchup with the A's. Rendon returned from a nearly three-month absence due to a hamstring strain in early July, but he played in just 14 games before going back on the injured list. It's unclear how long Rendon is expected to be sidelined this time around, but he'll be eligible to be reinstated Aug. 6.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the A's, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's the second consecutive game on the bench for Rendon, who has gone 5-for-30 in seven contests since the All-Star break. Willie Calhoun will bat cleanup as the designated hitter in the series finale versus Oakland.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Rendon will get the night off Saturday after starting back-to-back games. The 34-year-old will hand over DH duties to Willie Calhoun, who'll hit cleanup. Rendon owns a .562 OPS through 142 plate appearances this season.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Rendon appears to be receiving a rest day while the Angels wrap up their series in Seattle with an afternoon game. Willie Calhoun will step in as the Halos' designated hitter in place of Rendon, who had started each of the first five games out of the All-Star break while going 4-for-22 with one walk, one stolen base, two RBI and one run.

Rendon went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 3-1 win over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

The steal was Rendon's first in 11 games since he returned from a hamstring injury. The third baseman has been mediocre in that span, batting .195 (8-for-41) with three RBI and two doubles while mainly hitting out of the leadoff spot. For the season, he's at a .241/.302/.284 slash line with no home runs, four steals, six RBI, 12 runs scored and five doubles over 30 games.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

For the first time since he returned Monday following a 68-game stay on the injured list due to a strained hamstring, Rendon will hit the bench. Rendon served as the Angels' leadoff man each of the last six games while making three starts apiece at designated hitter and third base, going 4-for-23 with two doubles, three walks, two runs and one RBI.

Rendon went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's loss to Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Rendon returned from a stint on the 60-day injured list due to a torn hamstring and batted leadoff while playing third base. The veteran didn't appear to have any lingering effects of the injury and plated his team's final run with a single in the seventh inning. Rendon is expected to be a near-everyday part of Los Angeles' lineup moving forward, though he may see some starts at DH to help him ease back into action after the long layoff.

The Angels activated Rendon (hamstring) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Rendon has been sidelined since late April with a torn left hamstring but convinced the Angels he was ready by facing some live pitching and working out. He skipped a rehab assignment, so rust is likely a given that he hasn't played a game in 11 weeks. Rendon could be eased into everyday playing time but eventually will be a regular between designated hitter and/or third base. He is leading off and playing third base Monday versus the Rangers in his return to action.

Rendon (hamstring) said Sunday that he could be reinstated from the 60-day injured list for Monday's series opener against the Rangers, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old faced live pitching Friday and Saturday, and he appears set to rejoin the Angels without embarking on a minor-league rehab assignment. Rendon has been on the shelf since April 21 due to a partial high-grade hamstring tear, and manager Ron Washington plans to alternate the veteran's playing time between designated hitter and third base until he's ready for everyday action in the field.

Rendon (hamstring) is expected to take live batting practice this weekend and could be activated from the injured list as soon as July 8, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Rendon hasn't played in a game since straining his left hamstring April 20, but he's recently ramped up his participation in baseball activities and is on the verge of batting against live pitching. The veteran third baseman previously indicated that he was considering agreeing to a minor-league rehab assignment, but it now appears that a rehab stint will be bypassed. Given the amount of time Rendon has been out, the Angels may elect to work him back into the lineup at a careful pace upon his return. However, the team may be in need of reinforcement at third base if Luis Rengifo's wrist injury is more than minor.
