Brandon Drury Taking Grounders Thursday
1 year agoLos Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (shoulder) is taking ground balls at third base on Thursday and is making throws across the diamond. Drury has been out since early July with an injury to his left, non-throwing shoulder, and he looks to be on track to start a minor-league rehab assignment soon. With Anthony Rendon (shin) still out for at least another couple of weeks, Drury could be back before then and should see regular playing time at the hot corner, at least until Rendon returns. However, the Angels could decide to trade for a third baseman such as the Nationals' Jeimer Candelario, which would further complicate the situation. Before his injury, the 30-year-old Drury was hitting a solid .277 (78-for-282) with 14 long balls, 45 RBI and 36 runs scored.
