Grade 3 plantar fasciitis tear Isbel has been diagnosed with a Grade 3 tear of a portion of his left plantar fasciitis.

Impact It's unclear what this means for Isbel's timetable or if he will undergo surgery, but the nature of the injury points to an extended absence. Isbel was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday and could be a candidate to eventually shift to the 60-day IL. Lane Thomas and Kameron Misner are in line for increased opportunities in center field for the Royals while Isbel is on the shelf.

Placed on IL with plantar fasciitis The Royals placed Isbel on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Impact Isbel was lifted from Tuesday's game versus the Rangers due to the injury, though it's unclear whether it occurred then or is something that's nagged at him. It's unclear how much time Isbel might miss. Lane Thomas will likely see the bulk of the reps in center field for Kansas City while Isbel is sidelined, though Kameron Misner was recalled from Triple-A Omaha and could also be in the mix for playing time.

Out of Wednesday's lineup Isbel (foot) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Isbel had to depart Tuesday's contest because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, though there's a good chance he would not have started Wednesday even if he were healthy, as southpaw MacKenzie Gore is on the bump for the Rangers. Lane Thomas will patrol center field for Kansas City.

Removed with foot injury Isbel was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rangers due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Impact Isbel had gone 1-for-2 with a walk before his foot forced him out of the game in the seventh inning.

Lane Thomas and Tyler Tolbert would be next in line to pick up starts in center field during any games Isbel has to miss.

Rare day off versus righty Isbel is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

Trio of hits Tuesday Isbel went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Tuesday's victory over Baltimore.

Impact Isbel was productive out of the nine hole, recording three hits, highlighted by a pair of doubles to lead off the fifth and seventh innings. After opening the season with an eight-game hitting streak and an OPS north of 1.000, the outfielder entered Tuesday's contest just 1-for-27 over his previous 11 appearances. He will look to build on this performance and get back on track at the plate to pair with well-regarded defense.
