Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington has probably had to share a few bizarre updates with reporters during his 28 years as a coach and nine seasons as a major league skipper. But the news he had to give to the media regarding infielder Miguel Sanó might be an all-timer for his career.

Prior to Sunday's defeat against the Cleveland Guardians that resulted in a series sweep, Washington provided an update on Sanó, who's been sidelined with left knee inflammation since April 26. The veteran slugger began a minor league rehab assignment this past week with the Angels' Arizona Complex League team.
