Royals Place Jonathan India on 10-Day IL for Left Shoulder Subluxation

The move underscores concerns about depth during a prolonged skid.

Overview

  • The Royals placed second baseman Jonathan India on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder subluxation and recalled Nick Loftin from Triple-A Omaha.
  • India has struggled to start the season, batting .167 with two home runs and eight RBIs in 17 games, including just one hit since April 6.
  • A shoulder subluxation is a partial dislocation, and team reports note this is the same shoulder that troubled him last year.
  • MLB.com reported he received an injection for the injury and will see another doctor this week.
  • Kansas City has dropped seven straight during a 7–15 start, putting added strain on a lineup now missing its starting second baseman.
