Lands on IL Lagares (calf) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact He was scratched from Monday's lineup with calf tightness, which may have ended up being a strain. Jon Jay is the expected replacement on the active roster. The Angels opted to go with Jared Walsh in right field and Albert Pujols at first base Tuesday, which could be a common alignment in the short term.

Out of Tuesday's lineup Lagares (calf) is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Royals, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact The Angels will go with an alignment of Jared Walsh in right field and Albert Pujols at first base, and it's unclear whether Lagares is sitting due to calf tightness or this is just the preferred lineup construction against lefty Danny Duffy. There could be playing time available for Lagares once he's healthy with Dexter Fowler (knee) on the shelf.

Scratched with calf tightness Lagares was scratched from the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals with left calf tightness, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact Albert Pujols will enter the lineup at first base as Jared Walsh moves out to right field to cover for Lagares, who had been filling in for Dexter Fowler (knee). It's uncertain whether Lagares is available off the bench.

Fills in for Fowler Lagares will start in right field and bat ninth Sunday against the Blue Jays.
Impact Lagares will stick in the lineup for the second straight day, with his starts coming against both a left-hander (Steven Matz) and a right-hander (Tanner Roark). The 32-year-old had broke camp with the Angels as a fourth outfielder, but he looks like he could be in store for an everyday role after Dexter Fowler (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a season-ending ACL tear.
