Luis Arraez suffers ankle injury that could scramble Phillies’ infield

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Luis Arraez suffered a sprained left ankle during Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Arraez was injured in the sixth inning while attempting to avoid a tag at first base and had to be assisted off the field after being unable to put weight on his left foot.

The injury creates significant uncertainty for the Phillies' infield alignment as they approach the postseason. Philadelphia acquired Arraez at the trade deadline to bat cleanup, and with the Wild Card Series starting next Tuesday, he faces a tight recovery timeline.
