  • LAA Shortstop #9
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Zach Neto (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Nationals.
    There’s been no indication that Neto will require a trip to the injured list, and he’s been able to come off the bench to pinch-hit in each of the previous two games, but the Angels are going to give him some extra time off to rest and recover with Monday’s off-day looming. It’ll be veteran Kevin Newman handling shortstop in his absence. The 24-year-old shortstop figures to be ready for Tuesday’s series opener against Atlanta at Truist Park.
  • LAA Shortstop #10
    Kevin Newman hit a three-run homer in a win for the Angels on Saturday over the Nationals.
    Newman broke the game open with a three-run blast in the seventh inning to turn a 3-2 lead into a 6-2 cushion. The 31-year-old is playing while Zach Neto (shoulder) isn’t healthy enough to start, and even with the homer and another hit, he’s slashing .202/.212/.262 over 84 at-bats.
  • LAA Shortstop #9
    Zach Neto (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Friday evening’s showdown against the Nationals.
    It’s the second straight game that Neto has missed since jamming his shoulder while attempting to steal a base during Tuesday’s ballgame. Fortunately, an MRI exam revealed no structural damage and the 24-year-old shortstop is still considered day-to-day. Kevin Newman will start in his place on Friday night and bat ninth against Jake Irvin and the Nationals.
  • LAA Shortstop #10
    Angels activated INF Kevin Newman from the paternity list.
    The 31-year-old was away from the team for a couple of days as he welcomed a new addition to the family. He returns to an underwhelming .195/.205/.221 slash line with zero homers, four RBI and one stolen base through his first 79 plate appearances with the Halos. Kyren Paris was optioned back to Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move.
  • LAA Shortstop #10
    Angels placed INF Kevin Newman on the paternity leave list.
    Newman will be away from the club on paternity leave for the next couple days. It’ll be Kyren Paris taking his spot on Los Angeles’ bench.
  • LAA Shortstop #9
    Zach Neto is on the bench for Sunday’s series finale against the Astros.
    It appears to be a routine maintenance day for Neto, who has started every game for the Angels since May 26. The 24-year-old burgeoning star has been excellent this season since returning from the injured list with 10 homers and 12 steals in 58 games. It’ll be veteran Kevin Newman taking a turn at shortstop on Sunday afternoon in his place.
  • LAA 3rd Baseman #5
    Angels placed 3B Yoán Moncada on the 10-day injured list with right knee inflammation.
    Moncada has performed well when he’s been able to take the field this season, hitting .237/.336/.505 in 30 games. If this calms down quickly, he could return in 10 days. Until then, the Angels figure to use Luis Rengifo at third and go with Scott Kingery and Kevin Newman at second. Kingery is starting tonight.
  • LAA 3rd Baseman #5
    Yoán Moncada was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Yankees with right knee soreness.
    Moncada was replaced by Kevin Newman at third base to open the sixth inning after going 1-for-2 with a double. The 30-year-old infielder will head for further evaluation to determine the severity of the issue. The positive news is that it’s unrelated to the thumb issue that was bothering him earlier this season. There should be an update on his status ahead of Friday’s series opener against the Guardians.
  • LAA Catcher #14
    Logan O’Hoppe and Zach Neto are not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Athletics.
    It’s a routine off day for both O’Hoppe and Neto to close out a series in Sacramento. O’Hoppe has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball over the past week, batting .370 (10-for-27) with four homers over his last seven games. It’ll be Travis d’Arnaud handling the catching duties with Kevin Newman at shortstop.
  • LAA 1st Baseman #18
    Nolan Schanuel is not in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Athletics.
    Schanuel is batting .212 in 33 at-bats this season against left-handers, so he’ll grab a seat on Wednesday night with veteran Kevin Newman getting a chance to face Athletics southpaw JP Sears. The suddenly red-hot Angels are vying for their sixth consecutive victory and are close to getting Mike Trout back from the injured list.
