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.

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.

Moncada was removed from Friday's game against Cleveland due to right thumb irritation, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada missed roughly two weeks at the end of spring training due to problems with his right thumb, and the injury seems to have reappeared during Friday's contest. It's unknown if his second bout of thumb trouble is severe enough to warrant a trip to the injured list, though the Angels may err on the side of caution this time around.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada didn't start the Angels' season opener Thursday due to a thumb issue that was giving him problems during spring training, but he was able to enter as a pinch hitter and draw a walk. Now seemingly recovered, he's set to make his first start at the hot corner since March 12.

Moncada (thumb) is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada made enough improvement with his right thumb to be included on the Angels' Opening Day roster, but he is not in the lineup for the opener. It's possible he'll be ready to play Saturday following Friday's off date for the Halos. Luis Rengifo is at third base and Tim Anderson is at second base Thursday.

Moncada (thumb) is expected to be active and in the Angels' Opening Day lineup versus the White Sox, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moncada hasn't played in two weeks due to a right thumb injury, but he's been working out in recent days and apparently has convinced the Angels he's well enough to give it a go in Thursday's opener. The 29-year-old switch hitter is expected to be the Halos' primary third baseman this season after signing a one-year, $5 million contract just before spring training. Injuries have limited Moncada to only 104 games over the last two seasons.
