Nolan Schanuel Not Ready to Return From Calf Injury
Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel (calf) remains absent from the team's starting lineup for Tuesday's tilt in Detroit against the Tigers, according to MLB.com. Schanuel is currently dealing with a tight left calf muscle and will miss a second straight game. It's something that he has dealt with before this season, so he should be considered day-to-day, and he could return for Wednesday's contest at Comerica Park. For the second straight game, infielder Vaughn Grissom will handle first-base duties and will back third for the Halos against Tigers right-hander Keider Montero. With a below-average power profile and on-base skills at first base, Schanuel isn't much to look at as a corner-infield option in mixed leagues, and he's currently slashing just .262/.313/.387 with a .700 OPS, only four long balls, 24 RBI, and 18 runs scored across his 191 at-bats. The former 11th overall pick in 2023 out of Florida Atlantic is rostered in only 13% of Yahoo leagues.
