The Guardians announced that outfielder Angel Martínez is headed to the 10-day injured list. He’ll presumably be down longer than 10 days, as he’s been diagnosed with a nondisplaced fracture in his left foot. Outfielder Petey Halpin has been recalled from Triple-A Columbus in his place.
Martínez suffered the injury over the weekend when he fouled a Tarik Skubal pitch into his foot (video link). He now becomes the second regular to land on the injured list due to a fracture this week. Cleveland also lost lineup cornerstone José Ramírez to a hamate fracture that’ll sideline him for a month or more.
The 24-year-old Martínez looked to be on the cusp of a breakout early in the season. The young switch-hitter raced out of the gate with a .270/.314/.507 batting line in his first 162 plate appearances before falling into a prolonged slump. From May 19 through June 6, he collected just seven hits in 55 at-bats — all without drawing even one walk along the way. Martínez had just started to show some signs of emerging from that cold spell when he suffered his injury Saturday.
More to come.
