Guillen to play 1B?
- The OC Register is reporting that Jose Guillen has been taking groundballs at first and third base.
Guillen, who had to order a first baseman's mitt and break it in, played third base in the minor leagues. It's a longshot, especially now that Raul Mondesi is out for at least a couple of months, but the Angels are considering having Guillen play some first base to ease a glut of outfielders/designated hitters.
Excellent. Best decision Mike Scioscia has made all year.
- Also from the Register: The Angel's second pick in the draft, high school outfielder Patrick White, has accepted a football schoolarshop offer from West Virginia. Good job Mr. Bane.
- From the LA Times: Times staff writer Ben Bolch reports that Casey Kotchman would likely be sent down no matter how much improvement he shows between now and when Erstad returns from the disabled list. Mike Scioscia was quoted as saying "With any young player you want them playing as opposed to just sitting here and not playing." Two smart moves in one day? What god did we please?
