The infielder is getting additional scans on his right wrist, an injury that seems to have been hampering his performance of late. Is that why he didn't get traded?
Infielder Luis Rengifo was placed on the 10-day injured list with what the team called "right wrist inflammation." The Angels selected the contract of Charles LeBlanc in a corresponding move.
Wednesday, Rengifo was removed from the Angels' game against the Colorado Rockies when the injury flared up, according to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register. Rengifo was having problems with his wrist after a swing in the eighth inning of the game. Since returning, however, Rengifo is slashing just .188/.257/.219 with only one extra-base hit in 35 plate appearances.
