Angels Notes: Calhoun, Cozart, Shoemaker

By Connor Byrne | June 2, 2018 at 5:35pm CDT

A few notes from Anaheim…

  • The Angels have placed right fielder Kole Calhoun on the 10-day disabled list (retroactive to Friday) with a right oblique strain, per a team announcement. In corresponding moves, the club recalled infielder Kaleb Cowart and outfielder Michael Hermosillo and optioned right-hander Jaime Barria to Triple-A. The loss of Calhoun may be a positive development for the Angels’ offense, as the normally respectable hitter has opened his age-30 campaign with a hideous .145/.195/.179 line in 185 plate appearances. As a result, Calhoun easily ranks last among qualified hitters in wRC+ (3, compared to a career 104 mark). To Calhoun’s credit, he hasn’t allowed his offensive woes to carry into the field. He ranks first among outfielders in Ultimate Zone Rating (6.2) and 11th in Defensive Runs Saved (seven).
  • Third baseman Zack Cozart is dealing with a left forearm strain, per Avery Yang of MLB.com. Cozart underwent an MRI on Friday, though the results aren’t yet known. While Cozart doesn’t seem overly concerned about the injury, it has kept him off the field since May 29, and he’s not in the Angels’ lineup Saturday. Cozart, whom the Angels added on a three-year, $38MM contract in free agency, has begun his Halos tenure with a .232/.310/.395 line and five home runs in 216 trips to the plate.
  • The forearm surgery righty Matt Shoemaker underwent earlier this week was to repair a split tendon, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times tweets. Shoemaker expects to resume throwing in six weeks, DiGiovanna adds, so it could be August before he factors in again in the majors – if he returns at all this season.

    You see that 3 wRC+ for Calhoun and you can’t help but think, that must be a typo right?

    Nope, not a typo. Amazingly that is correct.

    To his credit tho, B-R is kinder to him with their OPS+ – they have him at a 5

      Well OPS+ and wRC+ are two different stats, but your point is taken

      Calhoun has a -1.2 WAR. That’s all I need to know to say he sucks this year. (Sad to see after four years of 12 WAR.)

    From 13-3 in first place to 30-28 5.5 gb and fading slowly…….Moreno put your pantalones on and start making moves. Trout is going to get tired and walk away, I would.
