Luis Rengifo's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo (wrist) is set to miss the rest of the regular season after undergoing wrist surgery on Tuesday. This is a shame considering Rengifo was in the middle of a breakout campaign. He was batting .300 with six home runs and a career-high 24 stolen bases in 78 games. However, it's a lost season for the Halos and Rengifo continued to be bothered by a lingering wrist issue. It's best for him to get the issue resolved and come out stronger next season. Fellow infielder Anthony Rendon (back) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. He figures to see increased playing time with Rengifo out of the picture.

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo (wrist) was placed on the 10-day injured list with right wrist inflammation on Saturday. He exited Friday's game against the New York Mets early due to a wrist inflammation and will be out for at least 10 days. The Angels purchased Charles Leblanc's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move. Rengifo is slashing .300/.347/.417 with six home runs, 30 RBI, 41 runs, and 24 stolen bases across 304 plate appearances in 2024. Luis Guillorme and Michael Stefanic should see an uptick in at-bats while Rengifo is sidelined.

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo (wrist) was removed from Friday night's series opener against the visiting New York Mets with wrist irritation. In his return to Anaheim's lineup following Wednesday's exit with a wrist flare-up after he took a swing in the eighth inning, Rengifo left Friday's game in the fifth inning with a similar issue and was replaced by Brandon Drury at third base. He was 0-for-2 with two strikeouts before departing. At this point, the Angels are fairly likely to send Rengifo to the injured list for the second time this season to get this problem sorted out once and for all. The 27-year-old switch-hitter is enjoying a breakout season, slashing .300/.347/.417 with six home runs, 13 doubles, 41 runs scored, and a career-high 24 stolen bases in 283 at-bats for the Halos. If Rengifo indeed misses additional time, Luis Guillorme and Michael Stefanic could form a platoon for at-bats at the hot corner.
