Angels place 2B Christian Moore (thumb) on 10-day IL
In a corresponding move, the Angels selected the contract of shortstop Chad Stevens from Triple-A Salt Lake. Stevens was slated to bat ninth in the order and start at second base in his major league debut on Thursday at Atlanta.
Moore, 22, dove while attempting to grab Ozzie Albies' grounder up the middle for a single and left the game in the sixth inning of an 8-3 loss to the host Braves on Wednesday. Moore was replaced by Kevin Newman.
"Anytime you see somebody like (Moore) have an injury like that, you fear the worst," Angels interim manager Ray Montgomery said.
He said that Moore missing two weeks might be "looking at the best-case scenario."
Moore made his major league debut on June 13. He is batting .189 (10-for-53) with three home runs and eight RBIs in 18 games.
The Angels selected Moore with the eighth overall pick of the 2024 MLB Draft.
Stevens, 26, was batting .307 with 14 homers and 43 RBIs in 72 games at Salt Lake.
The Angels also released right-hander Hector Neris, 36, who was 3-0 with a 5.14 ERA, seven walks and 19 strikeouts in 14 innings over 21 relief appearances this season.
Neris also pitched this season for the Braves and was 0-1 with a 45.00 ERA after allowing five earned runs over one inning, giving him a combined 7.80 ERA for 15 innings in 2025.

Is Palmeiras vs Chelsea on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Club World Cup quarter-final
New signing Joao Pedro could make his Chelsea debut as the Blues take on Palmeiras looking to go one step closer to Club World Cup glory. Chelsea have already been burned by Brazilians in this tournament, suffering a shock 3-1 defeat to Flamengo which saw them forfeit top spot in their group. However, finishing second has led them to a more favourable side of the draw, avoiding Bayern Munich in the round of 16 and instead dispatching Benfica 4-1 - a game that was far from straightforward, with a two-hour weather delay stifling their momentum. Palmeiras, meanwhile, booked their place in the last eight with a win over fellow Brazilian outfit Botafogo and could yet face another familiar side in Fluminense should they overcome Chelsea in Philadelphia. Here's everything you need to know ahead of the match. When is Palmeiras vs Chelsea? Palmeiras will face Chelsea at 2am BST on Saturday 5 July, or 9pm local time on Friday 4 July.

It's the clash of the giant-slayers as Fluminense and Al Hilal go head-to-head with a spot in the Club World Cup semi-finals on the line.

That was until Al Hilal went one better, shocking one of the tournament favourites in Manchester City in a 4-3 extra-time victory. Having stamped their mark as the dark horses of the Club World Cup, both will be flying the flag for non-European teams as they look to cause further upsets in the competition's latter stages.
