Phillies' Jordan Luplow: Tears ACL, done for season
Triple-A Lehigh Valley placed Luplow on its full-season injured list Sunday due to a torn ACL in his right knee, Tom Housenick of The Allentown Morning Call reports.
Luplow had seen big-league action in each of the past seven seasons but had played exclusively at the Triple-A level in 2024 after linking up with the Phillies on a minor-league deal late in spring training. Before suffering the season-ending knee injury, Luplow slashed .255/.343/.450 with 10 home runs and 12 stolen bases in 254 plate appearances for Lehigh Valley. The 30-year-old outfielder will now embark on a lengthy rehab process that could extend into the early portion of the 2025 season.

Phillies' Jordan Luplow: Signs minors deal with PHI
Luplow signed a minor-league contract with the Phillies on Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
A day after being let go by Atlanta, Luplow will get a shot with the Phillies.

The 30-year-old outfielder will begin the season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, but he could get the call up to Philadelphia if the big club needs a bench bat to face left-handed pitchers.

Jordan Luplow: Hits free agency
Luplow elected free agency Monday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.
Luplow was one of the victims as the Twins performed some 40-man roster housecleaning and he'll hit free agency rather than accept an outright assignment. The veteran outfielder has always hit lefties well, so he could latch on with a team looking for a short-end platoon option.

Twins' Jordan Luplow: Designated for assignment
Luplow was designated for assignment by the Twins on Monday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
Luplow posted a .751 OPS over 26 games with the Twins, but he started just two games after the calendar flipped to September, so the club decided to remove him from the roster to open up a spot for Michael Taylor. It remains to be seen if Luplow will remain with the Twins or join a fourth organization this year.

Braves' Jordan Luplow: Making outfield debut
Luplow (oblique) will start in left field and bat seventh in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles.
Due to a sore right oblique that he sustained in the early stages of spring training, Luplow didn't make his Grapefruit League debut until Sunday, when he went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored while serving as Atlanta's designated hitter in an 11-3 win over the Pirates. With Luplow checking out fine following that contest, he'll now get the opportunity to play the outfield for the first time this spring. The righty-hitting Luplow profiles as a potential short-side platoon mate in left field for the lefty-hitting Eddie Rosario.
