SAN DIEGO — The Angels are giving Anthony Rendon a chance to avoid a third trip to the injured list this season.
Although Rendon was walking with the help of crutches on Tuesday, and still using one crutch on Wednesday, the Angels kept the veteran third baseman on the active roster in hopes that he can play by Friday night at Dodger Stadium.
“Hopefully this thing subsides in the next couple of days and he’ll be fine for L.A., but we’ll reevaluate it after the game tonight, probably again tomorrow sometime and make a decision,” Manager Phil Nevin said before Wednesday’s game against the Padres.
