Quinlan up, Hensley down
Rob Quinlan was finally called up yesterday (if you'll recall, Quinaln seemed to be the obvious choice out of spring training, but Scioscia threw us a little curve by carrying Josh Paul instead.), replacing Matt Hensley. Sean over at Purgatory Online, thinks this may be a sign that Scioscia is willing to put Erstad back in center.
That's a wonderful thought, but I doubt it. With two outfielders on the DL, and one more spending most of his time playing the infield (Figgins), I wouldn't be surprised if Quinlan gets more time in the outfield (remember, he's a natural right fielder) then at first.
In completely unrelated news, the Angels official website reports that the Halo's top pitching prospect, Ervin Santana, could join AA Arkansas in a matter of weeks. He missed all of spring training and some worried he would be out for the season with "shoulder stiffness."
