Jorge Soler

Soler has struggled all season, hitting just .207/.280/.350 with eight home runs, 26 RBI, and a 30 percent strikeout rate. This back injury might be an opportunity to place him on the injured list and give him a brief reset. Jo Adell will move to right field with Soler out of the lineup, and Scott Kingery will start in center field and bat seventh.

Soler (back) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Soler is sitting out Wednesday's game against the Yankees due to back stiffness, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Soler will get some extra rest during Wednesday's showdown against the Yankees with Luis Rengifo heading out to right field in his place. The 33-year-old veteran slugger went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts on Tuesday night and is just 5-for-42 with zero extra-base knocks since June 1. He's presumably day-to-day for now.

Soler is back in right field and batting fifth on Tuesday night at Angel Stadium following a brief two-game absence recovering from a lingering groin issue. It doesn't appear to be a serious concern moving forward, but the Angels are likely to be cautious with his workload to avoid a setback.
