The Toronto Blue Jays will soon have a better understanding of the next steps for Cody Ponce.Per Sportsnet’s Arden Zwelling on Wednesday, Ponce will travel to Los Angeles for an in-person evaluation of his knee with Dr. Neal ElAttrache.A decision will be made there on whether surgery is necessary.The news follows the announcement from Blue Jays manager John Schneider on Tuesday that Ponce has a right ACL sprain and is set to miss a “pretty significant chunk of time.”Ponce suffered the injury on Monday during his first start in the majors since 2021, when he fell to the ground chasing a ground ball and had to be carted off the field.The 31-year-old — signed to a $30-million, three-year contract during the off-season — was 2.1 innings into the series-opening game against the Colorado Rockies.Ponce overpowered the Rockies before the injury, getting 15 misses on 29 swings.ElAttrache has previously treated athletes Tom Brady, Kobe Bryant, Aaron Rodgers and Shohei Ohtani.
