Nick Tropeano To Rehab on Saturday

Los Angeles Angels starter Nick Tropeano (shoulder) will be throwing a 60-pitch rehab start for Inland Empire on Saturday. If all goes well, he will likely make one more rehab start before being ready to rejoin the rotation sometime in mid-July. Tropeano's return will be a welcome one for the Angels, who have dealt with […]

Shohei Ohtani Sitting Against Lefty

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is out of the lineup on Thursday against left-hander Marco Gonzales and the Mariners. Ohtani will likely see plenty of days off against lefties so that Albert Pujols can get frequent repetitions at designated hitter. With Jefry Marte back, Pujols can play first base on those days. This […]

Jefry Marte Reinstated from DL, Jabari Blash Optioned

The Los Angeles Angels have reinstated Jefry Marte (wrist) from the disabled list. They optioned outfielder Jabari Blash to make room. Marte had been splitting time at first and third base before going down with an injury. He is hitting .262 with three home runs on the season. Unless he acquires a full-time role, he […]

6 years ago

Kaleb Cowart Optioned to Triple-A

Los Angeles Angels infielder Kaleb Cowart was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake to make room for Garrett Richards, who is starting on Wednesday. Cowart has been up and down quite a bit this season and is 1-for-8 with a double and two runs scored at the big league level. He hit .225 with four stolen […]

6 years ago

Chris Young to DL, Jabari Blash Recalled

Updating an earlier report, Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young was placed on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain. Jabari Blash has been recalled to take his place. Young was removed from Tuesday's game in the first inning after falling awkwardly while chasing a fly ball. Young is hitting .168 on the season, […]

6 years ago

Tyler Skaggs to DL with Adductor Strain

Los Angeles Angels left-hander Tyler Skaggs (groin) is headed to the disabled list with a right adductor strain. He was scheduled to pitch on Thursday, but right-hander Jaime Barria will take his place. Deck McGuire was recalled to take his spot on the active roster and could find himself making another spot start for LA. There's […]

6 years ago

Albert Pujols Moved to Fifth In Batting Order

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Albert Pujols is hitting fifth for the first time since 2001 on Wednesday. Andrelton Simmons was moved to second, with Mike Trout and Justin Upton sliding down a spot each. Pujols is hitting .247 with 12 home runs and 47 RBI on the season. A permanent move to fifth would […]

6 years ago

Ian Kinsler Not in Wednesday's Lineup

Los Angeles Angels second baseman Ian Kinsler is not in the lineup on Wednesday against the Mariners. Kinsler is likely just getting a day off, with a day game following a night game. David Fletcher will start in his place, hitting ninth. Kinsler is hitting .213 with 11 home runs and seven stolen bases on […]

6 years ago

Kole Calhoun to Hit Leadoff

Los Angeles Angels right fielder Kole Calhoun is batting leadoff for the Angels on Wednesday against the Mariners. Calhoun had an awful first part of the season but has hit .273/.327/.545 since returning from the disabled list on June 18. If Calhoun sticks atop the Angels order against right-handers, he will add even more value, […]

6 years ago

Chris Young Likely Headed to DL

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young is expected to hit the disabled list with a hamstring injury. He was removed from Tuesday's game in the first inning after falling awkwardly while chasing a fly ball. Manager Mike Scioscia said Young is expected to miss a lot of time, so a DL stint seems like a […]

6 years ago

Garrett Richards to Start Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels starter Garrett Richards will return from the disabled list and start for the Angels on Wednesday against the Mariners. Richards was placed on the disabled list back on June 15, but a pair of rehab appearances went well, so the hard-throwing right-hander is ready to return. Richards has a 3.42 ERA and a […]

6 years ago

Kole Calhoun Continues to Sit Against Lefties

Los Angeles Angels right fielder Kole Calhoun is sitting on Tuesday against the left-handed Wade LeBlanc. As expected, Calhoun is in a straight platoon with Chris Young in right field. Calhoun is only hitting .128 against left-handers on the year, so owners should expect to sit him against all left-handers going forward.

6 years ago

David Fletcher Batting Leadoff for Angels

Los Angeles Angels third baseman David Fletcher is hitting leadoff on Tuesday against Wade LeBlanc and the Seattle Mariners. Fletcher appears to have taken over regular duties at third base, frequently starting against both right- and left-handed pitching. The move to the top of the order is another huge boost for the rookie. If that […]

6 years ago

Angels Option Deck McGuire

The Los Angeles Angels have optioned right-hander Deck McGuire to Triple-A Salt Lake. McGuire made one spot start for the Angels and appeared a handful of times in relief. He posted a 7.56 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP, however, and is not a viable fantasy asset in any format.

6 years ago

Shohei Ohtani Activated From The DL, Batting Sixth Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow0 has been activated from the disabled list. He is in the lineup on Tuesday, batting sixth and serving as the designated hitter. His timeline for pitching is still up in the air. It remains possible that he will return this season to the mound, but most experts expect that […]

6 years ago

Shohei Ohtani Cleared to Hit

Los Angeles Angels starter and designated hitter Shohei Ohtani has been cleared to begin hitting immediately. He will be re-evaluated in three weeks for a better prognosis for when he will return to the mound. Ohtani is expected to be back in the lineup at DH soon. This will push Albert Pujols into full-time duty […]

6 years ago

Mike Trout Expected Back in the Outfield Friday

The Los Angeles Angels are hoping that outfielder Mike Trout (finger) will be able to play centerfield on Friday against Baltimore. Trout has been suffering from a sprained right index finger, although it has not kept him out of the lineup as he has been acting as the designated hitter for about a week. Still, […]

6 years ago

Jefry Marte Begins Rehab Assignment Friday

Los Angeles Angels infielder Jefry Marte (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment on Friday with High-A Inland Empire. Marte was placed on the disabled list back on June 12, but looks to be nearing a return sometime next week. Marte will likely see a fair amount of time at third base with Zack Cozart (shoulder) […]

6 years ago

Garrett Richards Set to Rehab Friday

Los Angeles Angels starter Garrett Richards will begin a rehab assignment on Friday with High-A Inland Empire. Richards threw bullpen sessions on both Monday and Wednesday, reporting that he felt great after. Richards can be expected back in a week or so, and should be held in all fantasy formats.

6 years ago

Angels Call Up Eduardo Paredes, Taylor Cole

The Los Angeles Angels have recalled relievers Eduardo Paredes and Taylor Cole, while optioning infielder Nolan Fontana and sending reliever Jake Jewell to the disabled list. Jewell bent his ankle awkwardly in Wednesday's game and was carried off on a stretcher. Paredes has thrown 13 1/3 innings on the year, with a 7.43 ERA and […]

6 years ago

Kole Calhoun, Luis Valbuena Once Again Sit Vs. LHP

With the Los Angeles Angels facing a left-handed pitcher, both infielder Luis Valbuena and Kole Calhoun are out of the lineup. Both players have been in a strict platoon all season, so this isn't a huge surprise. With Zack Cozart done for the season, Valbuena will likely split time with rookie David Fletcher at third […]

6 years ago

Zack Cozart to Have Surgery on Torn Labrum

Los Angeles Angels infielder Zack Cozart is having surgery to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder. Although the Angels have not provided a timeline, it is expected that he will miss the rest of the season. Cozart was the team's starting third baseman and hit .219 with five home runs on the year. Expect […]

Deck McGuire to Make Spot Start on Sunday

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Deck McGuire will be called upon to make a spot start on Sunday. With John Lamb hitting the DL, the Angels were in need of a spot start. McGuire threw four innings of relief on Tuesday, giving up three earned runs and striking out one. He will not be worth streaming […]

7 years ago

Garrett Richards' Bullpen Session Goes Well

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Garrett Richards (hamstring) threw a bullpen session on Wednesday and reported that it went well. He is not an option to start on Sunday, however, when the Angels next need a starter. Richards should be back sometime next week, assuming he suffers no setbacks. It's unclear who will start for […]

7 years ago

Zack Cozart to Get Second Opinion on Shoulder

Los Angeles Angels infielder Zack Cozart is getting a second opinion on his shoulder from doctor Neil ElAttrache, according to manager Mike Scioscia. This is not a good development for the Angels' third baseman, who has been out since June 15 after he dove awkwardly on his shoulder. Look for Luis Valbuena and David Fletcher […]

7 years ago

John Lamb Placed on Disabled List

Los Angeles Angels starter John Lamb was placed on the 10-day disabled list with shoulder and elbow inflammation. Reliever Jake Jewell was recalled in his place. Lamb was absolutely crushed by the Red Sox on Tuesday, giving up five runs in just 1 2/3 innings. The Angels don't have a starter for Sunday lined up, […]

7 years ago

Mike Trout is Designated Hitter Again Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (finger) is in the lineup on Wednesday but is still serving as the designated hitter. Trout threw on Tuesday and said his finger felt much better, so he will likely be back in the outfield soon. From a fantasy perspective, as long as he is still in the lineup, […]

Chris Young Takes David Price Deep

The Los Angeles Angels got rocked 9-1 on Tuesday. Their lone run was a solo home run from notorious lefty killer Chris Young, who took David Price deep in the third inning. Despite the solid effort, Young is hitting just .176 on the year with six home runs and 34 strikeouts in 108 at-bats. He's […]

7 years ago

John Lamb Rocked on Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels left-hander John Lamb got rocked by the Red Sox on Tuesday. He surrendered five runs (three earned) in just 1 2/3 innings. He walked two and struck out two. Lamb is just a rotation filler until the Angels get healthy, and he now sports a 7.20 ERA and a 1.90 WHIP in […]

7 years ago

Kole Calhoun, Luis Valbuena Sit Against Left-Hander

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Kole Calhoun and infielder Luis Valbuena will sit on Tuesday against left-hander David Price. Calhoun has hit well since returning from the disabled list, but it looks like he will still be held out against left-handers, at least for now. Michael Hermosillo will take his place in right field, batting ninth. […]
