Adrianza is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza had started each of the past three games at third base while going 1-for-11 with a solo home run. Even with Miguel Sano (knee) on the injured list and with Luis Rengifo (illness) out of the lineup for the second game in a row, Adrianza will cede the hot corner to Cole Tucker in the series finale.

Adrianza went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza notched his first round-tripper in 132 at-bats, dating back to October of 2021. After spending early portions of the season in Triple-A Salt Lake, Adrianza was called up on Apr. 21 with Anthony Rendon (hamstring) moved to the IL. Since then, Adrianza has gone 4-for-15 (.267) with three runs scored and two RBI.

The Angels selected Adrianza's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old joined the Halos on a minor-league deal in February and has joined the big club with Anthony Rendon (hamstring) headed to the injured list. Adrianza made just five appearances with Atlanta last season but got off to a hot start at Salt Lake in 2024 with a .992 OPS in 53 plate appearances.

Adrianza agreed to a minor-league contract with the Angels on Friday that includes an invite to major-league spring training, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Registerreports.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza spent 2023 with Atlanta but was on the injured list for much of the season with elbow and shoulder injuries. He tallied just 41 plate appearances between Triple-A and the majors, going 4-for-38.

Adrianza elected free agency Monday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza cleared waivers after being removed from Atlanta's 40-man roster last week and will now get an early start to free agency. The utility player missed a large chunk of the 2023 season with elbow and shoulder injuries but his versatility will be appealing to some teams, albeit probably on a minor-league deal.

Atlanta reinstated Adrianza (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list and designated him for assignment Monday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Triple-A Gwinnett's season coming to an end Sunday, Adrianza's minor-league rehab assignment simultaneously concluded. Over an 11-game stint with Gwinnett, Adrianza batted just .152, and though he's seemingly healthy again, Atlanta didn't have room for him on its roster. Atlanta will proceed with Nicky Lopez and Luke Williams as its primary utility men for the final week of the regular season.

Adrianza (elbow/shoulder) shifted his rehab assignment Tuesday from High-A Rome to Triple-A Gwinnett.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza went 1-for-5 with a double and two walks during his three-game stay in the South Atlantic League and is now just one step away from returning to Atlanta's active major-league roster. The veteran utility infielder has been out since early May due to elbow and shoulder injuries.

Adrianza (elbow/shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Rome on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza has been sidelined since early May, initially going down with an elbow injury before later hurting his shoulder. He's finally game-ready now, and he'll look to rejoin Atlanta in a utility role later this month once he completes his rehab assignment.

Adrianza was transferred to the 60-day injured list by Atlanta on Friday with a left shoulder strain.

EDGE Analysis

Adrianza had been set to return from his right elbow injury soon but evidently must have hurt his shoulder while on a rehab assignment. He now won't be eligible for activation until early July.

Adrianza (elbow) appears on track to be activated from the injured list this weekend, Grant McAuley of 929 The Game reports.

EDGE Analysis

Braden Shewmake was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday, during a scheduled off day for Atlanta, and it looks like Adrianza's activation could be the corresponding move Friday. Out since May 5 due to right elbow inflammation, the veteran utility infielder has gone 5-for-14 (.357) with four RBI through four rehab games at High-A Rome.
