The Los Angeles Angels announced they placed shortstop Andrelton Simmons on the 10-day disabled list with a Grade 2 right ankle sprain and recalled utilityman Kaleb Cowart from the minor leagues.
This comes after Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reported Simmons twisted the ankle on the dugout steps prior to Tuesday's game.
The loss of Simmons is a significant blow for the Angels as they look to compete for a playoff spot in the American League West. He impacts the game in a number of ways with his speed, hitting ability and slick fielding and is an anchor of their infield on a daily basis.
