Moncada (thumb) has been able to swing right-handed and field grounders, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada landed on the 10-day IL due to a right thumb sprain April 10, so he's already eligible to be activated. It's not clear when the switch hitter will be able to resume swinging left-handed, but he at least appears to be making progress in his recovery. Moncada could return to the Angels before the end of April, but an early-May return is probably more likely.

The Angels placed Moncada on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right thumb sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada first injured his thumb back in mid-March. He was included on the Halos' Opening Day roster but has had a pair of setbacks since then, and the club has finally decided a stint on the IL is required. According to Brian Murphy of MLB.com, manager Ron Washington was unwilling to speculate whether Moncada would miss more than the minimum 10 days, as the Angels are still awaiting the results of a recent re-evaluation on his thumb before offering up a timeline for his return. The Angels will likely continue to go with Luis Rengifo as their primary third baseman and Kyren Paris as their primary second baseman while Moncada is shelved.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada aggravated a right thumb injury for a second time Wednesday, forcing his exit from the game.

Moncada was pulled from Wednesday's game against Tampa Bay due to right thumb soreness, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada began having issues with his thumb toward the end of spring training. He's already aggravated it once since the regular season began, leaving Friday's contest early before missing the next three games, and he couldn't make it through his first game back in the lineup without experiencing another flare-up. The Angels may consider sending the 29-year-old to the injured list to give his thumb the time it needs to properly heal, though the team's plans are currently unknown.

Moncada was removed from Wednesday's game against the Rays due to an injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada started Wednesday's game after missing the Halos' previous three contests due to a thumb injury that's been bothering him since spring training. If his removal Wednesday ends up being the result of another problem with his thumb, there's a chance the Angels will place him on the IL until he's completely past the issue.

Moncada (thumb) will start at third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada (thumb) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Cleveland, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada aggravated his injured thumb during Friday's game. It will officially cost him at least one start, though there's a chance the Angels will send him to the injured list until his thumb is no longer an issue. While the team weighs its options, Luis Rengifo will move to third base to cover for Moncada, and Kyren Paris will pick up a start at second.
