Injury updates

It might be quicker to update you on the status of those Angels who aren't currently injured, but here we go anyway:

  • Garret Anderson (mysterious back pains): The Angels still don't have a clue what's causing the pain or how best to treat it. GA is eligible to return from the DL now, but seeing as he hasn't so much as touched a bat in four weeks, his return still looks to be a long way off.

  • Brendan Donnelly (elbow tendinitis): Stoneman claims the elbow pains Donnelly felt during his rehab assignment nothing serious and the course of action appears to be several days of rest. The Angels hope he'll be back on his rehab any day- I'm not holding my breath.

  • Darin Erstad (hammy): An MRI uncovered two "significant" strains in Erstad's right hamstring. He'll be out at least a month. Take your time Darin- no rush!

  • Tim Salmon (knee): Finally, some good news! Salmon starts a three-day rehab assignment in Rancho Cucamonga today. Expect him back in the lineup for the Yankees series in Anaheim.

  • Troy Glaus (shoulder, knee): Troy had a MRI on Thursday, which reveled a strained right shoulder and a medial collateral sprain of his right knee. The shoulder injury is being described as "similar" to the injury that ended his season last year. I fully expect to see Troy placed on the DL when Salmon is activated.

Would someone please cover Vlad in bubble wrap!? I'm going to go shoot myself in the head now... but you guys have a nice day!
