Salmon

Salmon experienced discomfort in his left knee. He will be revaluated today.

Salmon’s average has dropped below .300 for the first time since April 9. Stay with him.

Salmon could return today.

Salmon doesn’t feel he needs two weeks to recover, but the Angels might need the roster spot since David Eckstein and Troy Glaus are also dinged up. For the moment, Salmon is day-to-day.

Salmon is day-to-day.

Salmon has missed the last three games with soreness in his left knee. If he can go it might mean Scioscia could give Garrett Anderson, who is day-to-day with a back injury, another day off.

Salmon is eligible to come off the DL on Friday. He’ll probably be ready then.

The plan is for Salmon, who is recovering from a left knee injury, to be activated for this coming Tuesday night’s game.

He will need 10 months of recovery time which could keep him from starting the 2005 season on time. Salmon has played with the injury for the past few months, which could explain in part, his horrible season to date. For the time being however, Salmon will continue to be the Angels’ right-handed part-time DH and outfielder. Don’t expect much in the way of performance from Salmon from here on in.
