Padres Second Baseman Rengifo Out for Season with Torn ACL

The San Diego Padres will be without second baseman Luis Rengifo for the remainder of the season, as the team announced Monday that he will undergo surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).

The injury, initially diagnosed as a knee sprain, was confirmed to be a full tear after further imaging. Rengifo's absence marks a significant blow to the Padres' lineup as they navigate the final stretch of the season.
