LA Angels Justin Upton is now out for the remainder of season with patella tendinitis

While this isn’t something for the LA Angels to take lightly, it is not the end of the world as the season is pretty much over and wouldn’t you rather have a healthy Justin Upton next spring. Upton dealt with this issue during Spring Training before suffering the turf toe injury that kept him out for close to three months at the beginning of the 2019 season.

According to reports Upton was bothered by the injury starting last weekend in Chicago and it got progressively worse this week. He will have platelet-rich plasma injected into his knee in hopes of alleviating the problem.
