Mike Moustakas Stats

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Mike Moustakas (forearm) was initially hurt while trying to make a diving play at first base against the Cleveland Guardians earlier this month and then had to leave a Sept. 12 game against the Seattle Mariners due to a left-forearm extensor strain. Moustakas was eventually placed on the injured list but said on Friday that he plans to return on Sunday. It would give the 35-year-old veteran a week left of action before the end of the 2023 campaign. The three-time All-Star has spent time with the Angels and Colorado Rockies this year, hitting a combined .252/.300/.404 with 12 home runs, 47 RBI and 43 runs scored in 370 trips to the plate over 108 games. With the Angels, he's hit .243 (54-for-222) with eight homers and 30 RBI in 61 games.

The Los Angeles Angels put infielder Mike Moustakas (forearm) on the 10-day injured list because of a left forearm extensor strain on Friday. They recalled second baseman Kyren Paris from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding roster move. Moustakas exited Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners in the fifth inning due to a sore left wrist, and it remains to be seen if he's able to return in 2023 with such little time remaining. Anaheim notably acquired the 35-year-old in a trade on the same night they pummeled his former Colorado Rockies team 25-1 for their worst loss in franchise history. Moustakas was serviceable at the start of his Angels career but stumbled to a .169 batting average (12-for-71) with one extra-base hit in his last 21 games. Eduardo Escobar and the recently elevated David Fletcher figure to take the Halos the rest of the way home at the hot corner.

Los Angeles Angels infielder Mike Moustakas stayed hot at the plate on Sunday night in a 9-8 loss to the division-rival Houston Astros by going 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk. It was the second game in a row that Moustakas left the yard for the Angels, and he's gone 12-for-50 (.240) with four home runs, eight RBI and seven runs scored in 14 games since joining the Halos. Despite the 34-year-old left-handed slugger's four home runs (eight total in 2023), he has managed to strike out 52 times in 190 trips to the plate with the Angels and Colorado Rockies in 61 total games. Moose might pop a home run every now and then, but he's not going to help your fantasy team's batting average at all with his lack of contact.
