Moncada isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada will get a breather after going 2-for-5 with a three-run homer during Tuesday's victory. While he sits, Luis Rengifo will fill in at third base with Tim Anderson at the keystone.

Moncada went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada provided a quick response to the Athletics' three-run fourth inning, countering with a three-run shot in the fifth to tie the game at 4-4. The third baseman has hit fairly well since returning from a sprained right thumb May 6, going 12-for-49 (.245) with four homers and 13 RBI over his last 13 games. He's at a .229/.349/.486 slash line through 83 plate appearances on the year.

Moncada (thumb) is starting at third base and batting third Sunday against the Dodgers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada was held out of Saturday's lineup after departing Friday's contest with the thumb issue, but he's back in the starting nine for Sunday's series finale. The 29-year-old missed most of April due to a sprained thumb but appears to have avoided a serious aggravation this time around.

Moncada was removed from Friday's game against the Dodgers with an apparent thumb injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada missed nearly a month of action while on the injured list because of a sprained right thumb, and he appeared to aggravate it during a swing in the ninth inning. If the 29-year-old ends up having to miss any more time due to his latest flare-up, Kevin Newman and Tim Anderson would be the leading candidates to pick up playing time in the infield.

Moncada went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 win over Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada now has two games under his belt since returning from a nearly month-long stint on the injured list, and he's homered in each contest while driving in four runs. The veteran third's baseman's long ball Wednesday was a 386-footer to right field for his team's first run. Moncada has struggled to stay healthy in recent campaigns, but he has a chance to return to fantasy relevance as the Angels' primary third baseman if he can put those injury issues behind him.

Moncada (thumb) went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada's homer was part of a six-run eighth inning that put the Angels in control of the game. The third baseman has battled a thumb sprain since mid-March, with the latest flare-up costing him nearly a month of action. Moncada is hitting .200 (5-for-25) with a homer, seven RBI, four runs scored, two doubles and a 6:8 BB:K over his first nine games with the Angels. Staying healthy will be the big concern for Moncada going forward, as he played in just 104 games between the 2023 and 2024 campaigns.

The Angels reinstated Moncada (thumb) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada started the season on the IL due to a right thumb sprain that he suffered in mid-March. He made two rehab outings with Single-A Inland Empire, going 0-for-5 with four walks and two strikeouts. He's progressed enough in his recovery to return to the big club, and he will start at third base and bat sixth against the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

Moncada (thumb) has gone 0-for-5 with a 2:4 K:BB in 10 plate appearances in his first two rehab games with Single-A Inland Empire.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada is nearly a month removed from landing on the 10-day injured list with a right thumb sprain that he first suffered back in mid-March. It's not clear how many rehab games he'll need, nor is Moncada guaranteed to get his third-base job back when he returns. He posted a .656 OPS in eight tilts before going on the IL.

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.
