Chris Taylor Nearing a Return
Los Angeles Angels utility man Chris Taylor (hand) started his minor-league rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Thursday and has gone 4-for-6 with two RBI in two games played so far. Taylor was hit by a pitch on June 9, and X-rays revealed a left-hand fracture. The 34-year-old veteran began the season with the Los Angeles Dodgers but was cut after 10 years with the team while hitting just .200 (7-for-35) in 28 games played. He has only played in 10 games with the Angels since latching on with the team and has gone 6-for-30 (.200) with a home run, three RBI and a stolen base. When Taylor is activated from the 10-day injured list, possibly in late July, he will serve as a utility infielder/outfielder for the Angels the rest of the way in the second half. There's very little fantasy value here because of his high-strikeout rate and limited playing time.
