Anthony Santander of Toronto Blue Jays Out With Left Shoulder Inflammation, Placed on 10-Day Injured List

Anthony Santander's absence from the lineup comes during a tough stretch at the plate. In his last ten games, he has managed a batting average of .167 with one home run. These numbers indicate a struggle to find consistency recently, which has affected his overall season average.

Before the shoulder issue, Santander dealt with hip inflammation earlier in May. This earlier injury also made him day-to-day, suggesting a challenging month for him health-wise. His switch-hitting ability will be missed, especially against varied pitching matchups, leaving George Springer and others to step up in right field for upcoming games.
