Kole Calhoun (hit in the right shoulder, hard slide into second) leaving Sloan Park with the trainer. #Angels

If Calhoun/Trout/Pujols goes down at any point, all of a sudden our offense looks pretty bad.

No worries ... we have Grant Green in the OF.

[Hollyw00d]

Time for a fire sale

Gee this could be bad. A possible OF of Joyce, Trout and Navarro would be dreadful defensively and having Navarro's bat in the lineup wouldn't be a good thing either. Personally I'd stick Green there over Navarro but it seems unlikely they would.

Jeff Fletcher says right tricep contusion. Should be good then.

The question is 3 days or 3 weeks?

Joyce is a DH. I'd rather see Navarro or Green in the outfield.

[Jay]

Navarro has had a better spring than Green by far.

Calhoun is going to play an intricate part in the success of our team this year, here's to hoping he's okay.

What don't you like about Navarro? I would assume the first person to get the starting gig would be Cowgill.

[Troll Daddy]

Kendrick got hit in the exact same spot yesterday. He'll be fine.

[Spirit]

Season over.

[Ohtaniland]

He's fine....

Cowgill had a .586 OPS against RHP last year, while it's .537 for his career. Cowgill is fine as a platoon guy, on the assumption last year wasn't a fluke (there's a couple of warning signs there too I think).

As for Navarro, I don't dislike him but he's just not very good at baseball. He's a 28 year old who had a wRC of 85 in the bigs with pretty regular playing time in the second half of last year. His career AAA numbers are okay, but when you factor in park factors they don't suggest he can hit much better than he did last year. Basically, guys who can't hit very well and are below average to bad defensively in the outfield are littered all around baseball. You don't want someone like that in your starting lineup.

He's oddly doing far better against RHP than LHP so far this spring. Only spring but weird none the less.

They're taking a look at Navarro in RF today

[Docwaukee]

I'd like to see Krauss get a shot.
