Moncada exited Thursday's game against the Orioles with tightness in his left hamstring.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada made a strong defensive play early on in the matchup, though he came up limping afterward. He managed to remain in the game for several innings but was ultimately lifted in the fifth inning. Given the number of lower-body injuries that Moncada has dealt with this season, this is a concerning development.

Moncada went 1-for-3 with two walks and a three-run home run Thursday against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

He's collected at least one hit in seven of his last eight games, maintaining a .267 average with seven RBI and three runs scored in that span. Moncada is still hitting a dreadful .202/.271/.327 across 299 plate appearances on the season.

It was his first home run since the All-Star break, and he's hit just .148 with nine RBI and four runs scored across 17 starts.

Moncada went 2-for-8 with two doubles, a walk, three RBI and a run scored across both games of Saturday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada continues to heat up at the plate, as he's maintained a .323 average with a home run, five RBI and 10 runs scored across his last seven starts. He's still hitting only .212/.266/.339 across 203 plate appearances on the season but appears to be fully healthy and getting on track at the dish.

Moncada went 2-for-6 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Sunday against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada has had a disastrous first half of the season dominated both by lower-body injuries and poor performance. He's maintained just a .213/.263/.337 line across 190 plate appearances for the season but enters the All-Star break having hit .324 with two homers, six RBI and 10 runs scored across his last nine starts. Assuming Moncada can maintain his health, this stretch has provided some hope his production will take a positive turn across the final months of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada took Cal Quantrill yard in the third inning to record his fourth home run of the season. He has at least one hit in eight of 12 starts since returning from the injured list July 1, but he is still hitting just .216 with seven RBI in that span. Moncada has shown few signs of breaking out of a season-long slump, as he's maintained a .191/.236/.303 line across 161 plate appearances on the campaign.

Moncada will sit Friday against the the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

A reason for Moncada's absence has not been announced, but it's possible it's related to the bruised right foot that forced him out of Wednesday's game against the Twins. He was able to start Thursday's series opener, though he went 0-for-3 in that contest. Josh Harrison slides to third base Friday, with Leury Garcia starting at second.
