The news was not good for Andrew Toles on Wednesday, as it was announced he tore the ACL in his right knee and is out for the season. He took it in stride, but it’s no doubt a big blow to the Dodgers.
Toles was slashing .271/.314/.458 with a 108 wRC+ and a surprising five home runs. In his last 11 games, he seemed to be finding his stride by hitting .375/.405/.600 with a 170 wRC+. He’s still a liability against left-handed pitching (just five plate appearances this against them), but he was holding his own against righties.
