    • Placed on injured list
      The Angels placed Trout on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a torn meniscus in his left knee.

      Advice: Trout was diagnosed with a torn meniscus Tuesday and will require surgery, so a move to the IL was expected. It's worth noting the 32-year-old superstar was placed on the 10-day IL rather than the 60-day list, which may indicate the Angels expect Trout to bounce back from his procedure relatively quickly.

    • Mike Trout hits IL with left knee meniscus tear
      Angels placed OF Mike Trout on the 10-day injured list with a left knee meniscus tear.

      Advice: Trout is slated to undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. There isn’t a definitive timetable for his return yet, but the expectation is that he’ll return at some point later this season. It’s obviously a colossal loss for the Angels, and fantasy managers. The 32-year-old generational superstar was in the midst of an impressive renaissance campaign, posting a strong .867 OPS with a major league-leading 10 homers and six steals through 29 games. There should be some clarity on his potential return timeline at some point following the knee procedure. Rotoworld 44 minutes ago

    • Walker Buehler sharp in likely final rehab outing
      Walker Buehler (elbow) allowed one run over five innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Oklahoma City.

      Advice: Buehler finished with five strikeouts, didn’t hand out a free pass, and threw 75 pitches (54 strikes). The hope for the Dodgers, and fantasy managers, is that the hard-throwing 29-year-old righty will be ready to make his season debut at some point next week, depending on how he comes out of this likely final rehab outing.

    • Mike Trout to undergo left knee surgery
      Mike Trout will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan and Alden González.

      Advice: It’s a devastating development for the Angels, and fantasy managers, as Trout was in the midst of a remarkable renaissance campaign this season with a robust .867 OPS to accompany a major league-leading 10 home runs and six steals through 29 games. Passan and González add that the procedure isn’t expected to be season-ending. However, it appears likely that Trout is going to require an extended absence. Rotoworld Today, 3:21 pm

    • Dealing with torn meniscus
      Trout was diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his left knee Tuesday and will require surgery, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

The 32-year-old doesn't have an official timeline for his return but isn't expected to be in danger of missing the rest of the season. Rotowire.com Today, 3:19 pm

    • Needs knee surgery
      Trout will undergo surgery on his knee in the near future, but the extent of the injury is not clear, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: It's unclear when the injury surfaced for Trout, as he had started all 29 games for the Angels this season. It's also unknown how long the 32-year-old will be sidelined, though the surgery isn't expected to be of the season-ending variety. Trout should be considered out indefinitely until more information is available. Rotowire.com Today, 3:10 pm

    • Productive out of leadoff spot
      Ruiz went 1-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Pirates on Monday.

      Advice: Five of Ruiz's nine hits on the season have now gone for extra bases, leading to his considerably surprising .528 slugging percentage across 42 plate appearances. The speedy outfielder has seen an increase in strikeout rate to 23.8 percent and is sporting a bloated 34.8 percent chase rate as well, but the Athletics might be willing to live with some of that if Ruiz can continue to demonstrate improved pop after posting a middling .654 OPS across 132 games in 2023.

    • Throwing side session Wednesday
      Sewald (oblique) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

      Advice: Sewald's last bullpen session, which was scheduled for Sunday, was put on hold after he experienced soreness following an appearance for Triple-A Reno. However, it's positive news that he's been cleared to toss a side session later in the week. The team will likely determine Sewald's next steps after his upcoming bullpen.

    • Not close to rehab assignment
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Suzuki (oblique) upped the intensity of his baseball activities Saturday and Sunday but is not close to beginning a rehab assignment, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

      Advice: Suzuki is getting a recovery day Monday before resuming baseball activities Tuesday and Wednesday. While he would appear to be progressing slowly but surely, he still has some hoops to jump through before he's ready to go out on a rehab assignment. Suzuki has missed the last two weeks of action with a right oblique strain. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:45 pm
