Wagner will have his left knee scoped Thursday and is expected to be sidelined from baseball activities for about a month, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old was placed on the 60-day injured list Tuesday due to knee inflammation, and he'll undergo the procedure to address the issue. Wagner should have enough recovery time to be healthy for the start of spring training. He played well in his first taste of the majors this season, producing a .305/.337/.451 slash line with two home runs and 11 RBI in 24 games.
