The Los Angeles Angels announced Sunday the knee injury suffered by outfielder Dexter Fowler during Friday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays was diagnosed as a torn ACL.
Fowler will undergo surgery with a recovery timetable of six to nine months, which likely rules him out for the remainder of the 2021 MLB season.
The Angels acquired the 2016 All-Star in a February trade with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Fowler recorded five hits in 20 at-bats with three runs scored through seven appearances to open the 2021 campaign. He's in the final season of a five-year, $82.
