Yoan Moncada Hitting Off a Tee From the Left Side
Yoan Moncada (knee) did not accompany the Angels on their road trip to Baltimore and New York, and is hitting off a tee from the left side only. It could be reassessed when the team returns home on June 20, according to MLB.com. The switch-hitting third baseman landed on the injured list June 2 due to right knee inflammation and has not been able to resume swinging a bat from the right side of the plate. At this point, his timeline for a return remains uncertain, but late June is the best-case scenario for his activation. Luis Rengifo and Kevin Newman have been filling in at third base in his absence. Before the injury, Moncada had been slashing .237/.336/.505 with six home runs, 16 runs scored, 19 RBI, and no stolen bases in 113 plate appearances.
