Kole Calhoun News
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun (hamstring) has undergone surgery on his hamstring, and there is no announced timetable for his return, according to Zach Buchanan of The Athletic. He reports that Calhoun had an "excision of his damaged left semitendinosus tendon," and that the surgery could have Calhoun sidelined for anywhere between three and eight weeks. Again, the team has not announced an official timetable for his return yet, but it's another blow for Calhoun who got off to a late start this season while recovering from knee surgery at the beginning of Spring Training.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a strained right hamstring. Calhoun was forced to leave Tuesday's game after grabbing his leg while attempting to steal a base, and the veteran outfielder will have to miss time as a result. It's a tough break for Calhoun, who had already been sidelined at the beginning of the year due to offseason knee surgery. The team recalled outfielder/catcher Daulton Varsho. He is expected to make some starts in the outfield with Calhoun sidelined, along with Pavin Smith.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun (leg) exited Tuesday's game with an apparent leg injury, according to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com. Gilbert reports that Calhoun appeared to have been grabbing his leg around the hamstring area after stealing third base in the sixth inning. Josh Rojas replaced him as a pinch runner, and came around to score on a single by David Peralta. There's no word yet as to the severity of the injury or how long it could keep Calhoun out, who has already missed time early on as he recovered from knee surgery he underwent at the beginning of Spring Training.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun epitomized the term "steady Eddie" for the majority of his career in Anaheim, producing solid, consistent results, but never taking his game to the next level. He was the perfect OF5 in a five-outfielder league. That changed in 2019, when Calhoun revamped his swing amidst a slump and wound up exploding for 33 home runs and a .236 ISO that year. He carried that success into 2020, as Calhoun popped 16 bombs with a .300 ISO and .362 wOBA in 228 PA last year. A disciple of the Statcast revolution, Calhoun posted a career-high 11.8% barrel rate and a 17-degree average launch angle in 2020, which were two key components to his success. A .211 BABIP and .264 xBA suggest that Calhoun could improve on his .226 BA from a year ago as well. He was dealing with some tightness and soreness in his right knee at the start of Spring Training, which turned out to be a medial meniscus tear. He underwent surgery in early March to repair his knee and should be out all of April. This has caused his ADP to plummet from 260 pre-injury to just outside the top 300. Given his age and reputation for bland stability Calhoun is often overlooked, but if he can marry his newfound power with a batting average around .250-.260 then he could prove to be a tremendous value. Due to the injury he's going un-drafted in most standard leagues so he's a sneaky stash if you have the spare IL slot.
