Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (elbow) is back at third base and is batting fifth for the Halos on Monday against the Kansas City Royals and veteran right-hander Seth Lugo at Kauffman Stadium. Rendon was hit by a pitch on Friday and missed the contests on both Saturday and Sunday, but he's back in there to start a new week. The 34-year-old veteran has hit .400 with a 1.033 OPS and two RBI in 15 career at-bats against Lugo, but that's probably not enough to sway DFS managers to put him into their lineups. The former first-rounder by the Washington Nationals in 2011 out of Rice is still searching for his first home run of the 2024 campaign and has just six RBI and five stolen bases in 153 at-bats when he's been healthy enough to play. Since returning from his latest injured-list stint on Aug. 7, Rendon has actually gone 7-for-25 (.280) with a double.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Orange County Register's Jeff Fletcher reports that Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (hip) is having hip surgery. General manager Perry Minasian said it's a "long-term" thing. Rendon has played in fewer than 60 games in five straight seasons with the Angels, and this year looks like more of the same. The 34-year-old veteran was already expected to start the year in a bench role in 2025, but now he'll be on the injured list, a common destination for him since he's been in Anaheim. With Rendon likely out for the long term, former White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada has an even better shot to open the year as the team's primary third baseman, although Luis Rengifo could also see time at the hot corner. When Rendon did play last year, he hit just .218/.307/.267 with 14 RBI and six steals in 238 plate appearances. He should be avoided in all fantasy formats in 2025.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon is expected to open camp as the team's No. 2 third baseman. Earlier this week, the Angles signed third baseman Yoan Moncada to a one-year deal, and he is expected to open spring training as the team's top option. Rendon has battled numerous injuries over the past four seasons. During this stretch, Rendon has never appeared in 60 or more games. Last summer, Rendon appeared in just 57 contests and held a poor .218/.307/.267 slash line. He hit 10 doubles and did not tally a long ball. However, he did show a solid eye at the plate, holding a 9.7 percent walk rate and a 14.7 percent strikeout rate. Fantasy managers should monitor his status during spring training but should not target him in any formats, as he will likely face an uphill battle to earn playing time in 2025.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

After another disappointing and injury-riddled 2024 campaign for Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon, he will need to prove himself in order to earn playing time next season. "He's gonna have to come in and show us he can still play and earn the right to play every day," general manager Perry Minasian said when asked what type of conversations the team has had with Rendon. Given the Halos' lack of other options at the position, it's likely that Rendon will see plenty of playing time if he's healthy. However, it's far from a guarantee that the 34-year-old veteran will be able to stay on the field. He played in only 57 games in 2024 and hit .218 (45-for-206) with no homers, 14 RBI and six steals in 238 plate appearances while going on the injured list three separate times. Unbelievably, Rendon still has two years left on his $245 million, seven-year deal.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon has been on the 10-day IL since September 10 with an oblique strain, and although it has not been made official, manager Ron Washington seemed to indicate that the former All-Star would likely not play again this season. With the Angels long out of contention and with just a handful of games to go in the season, it wouldn't make sense to roll the veteran out there in what has turned out to be yet another season marred by injury. The 34-year-old played in just 57 games in 2024, the fourth consecutive season in which he did not surpass even 60 games played. Rendon finishes with a .218-0-14-21-6 line in 238 plate appearances.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller
