Taylor Ward Goes On Paternity List
4 months agoThe Los Angeles Angels placed outfielder Taylor Ward on the paternity list on Tuesday and reinstated infielder Anthony Rendon (back) from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Ward will be away from the Angels for a few days and will miss the series in the Bronx against the New York Yankees this week before most likely returning on Friday for the series opener against the hosting Washington Nationals. Ward is useful for his power (16 home runs) for outfield depth in fantasy leagues, but he doesn't provide much else on a bad Angels team. He's currently slashing .228/.309/.395 with a below-average .704 OPS and 55 RBI in 109 games played. With Mike Trout (knee) and Luis Rengifo (wrist) both out for the year, Ward isn't going to have much protection in the heart of the Halos' batting order the rest of the year.
