Hits shelf with shoulder injury
Kansas City placed India on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a left shoulder subluxation.
Analyse
India hadn't started in any of the Royals' last three games, but it's not clear if his recent absences from the lineup were performance-related, a result of the injury or a combination of both. In any event, India won't be eligible for activation until April 29, clearing the way for Michael Massey to make regular starts at second base for at least the next week. The Royals should have more information regarding the severity of India's injury along with a potential timeline for his return in the coming days.

Left out of lineup vs. lefty
India is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.
Analyse
On the bench for three of the Royals' previous four matchups with right-handed starting pitchers, India's playing time had already been tailing off, but the veteran infielder will now remain out Sunday despite a southpaw (Ryan Weathers) taking the hill for the Yankees. The Royals will go with the left-handed-hitting Michael Massey at second base instead of India, who has mustered a lowly .167/.310/.313 slash line across 58 plate appearances thus far during his second season with Kansas City.

Dip in playing time
India is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Detroit.
Analyse
It's the third time over the last four games against right-handed pitching that India has been out of the lineup, as Michael Massey seems to have inched past him as the preferred option at second base. India is hitless over his last five games and is slashing just .175/.340/.325 on the season.
