Taylor Ward - Targeting Tuesday return Ward (hamstring/neck) has been progressing in his recovery, and he's expected to return from the injured list when first eligible against the Dodgers on Tuesday, Sarah Wexler of ML...

Impact Ward has been battling a sore right hamstring as well as a neck stinger, but Angels head trainer Mike Frostad said Wednesday that the outfielder is progressing well from both issues. "We're still working through it a little bit," said Frostad. "I mean, I wouldn't say it's completely healed, but he's still able to throw and he's able to hit and he's pain free with everything. So that's the biggest thing, is he's not feeling any soreness." His activation will likely lessen the playing time of both Jo Adell and Juan Lagares, who have been logging time in right field in Ward's place.

Anthony Rendon - Hitting in cage Rendon (wrist) has been able to hit in a batting cage in addition to taking groundballs, Trent Rush of Angels Radio reports.

Impact Rendon continues to take steps toward a return, though a definite timeline for his activation remains uncertain. He went on the 10-day IL with right wrist inflammation May 27 and has already exceeded the minimum required stay. Matt Duffy and Tyler Wade have logged the most time at third base while Rendon has been out.

Jhonathan Diaz - Likely to start Friday Diaz was scratched from his start Thursday with Triple-A Salt Lake and is likely to be recalled to start Friday against the Mets, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact The Angels have confirmed that they will recall a pitcher from the minors to start Friday. A spot in the rotation opened after Noah Syndergaard was pushed back in the rotation, so Diaz would likely only be making a spot start. Diaz has made three appearances with the big-league club this season and maintained a 1.32 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 10:8 K:BB across 13.2 frames.

Noah Syndergaard - Won't start this weekend Syndergaard won't start during the Angels' weekend series against the Mets, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Syndergaard tentatively lined up to take the mound against his former team Sunday, but the Angels have chosen to start Michael Lorenzen on Saturday followed by Patrick Sandoval on Sunday. Interim manager Phil Nevin said that the team wanted to give Syndergaard some extra rest, so the 29-year-old is slated to start Tuesday against the Dodgers.

Brandon Marsh - Steps out of lineup Marsh is not in the lineup Thursday against the Red Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Marsh started the past seven games and will take a seat Thursday after going 2-for-26 with eight strikeouts during that stretch. Dillon Thomas, Juan Lagares and Jo Adell will start from left to right in the outfield.

Mike Trout - Remains out of lineup Trout (groin) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Trout is dealing with left groin tightness but isn't expected to require a trip to the injured list. However, he'll remain out of the lineup for a second consecutive game Thursday while Juan Lagares starts in center field and leads off. It's not yet clear whether Trout will be available off the bench, but he remains day-to-day for now.

Jimmy Herget - Takes loss Wednesday Herget (1-1) was tagged with the loss Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing a run on two hits and one walk while striking out two in one inning.

Impact There was no margin for error in the tight contest, as the only run in the game was the one Herget allowed in the sixth frame. The right-hander started off the inning with a pair of strikeouts, but Boston made him pay for a two-out walk when Bobby Dalbec knocked in a run with a double. Herget has pitched well for Los Angeles this season, posting a 3.10 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 29:4 K:BB over 29 innings.

Reid Detmers - Tosses 4.1 scoreless frames Detmers pitched 4.1 scoreless innings against Boston on Wednesday, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out one. He did not factor in the decison.

Impact Detmers did well in keeping the Red Sox off the scoreboard, but he didn't last very long in the contest due to throwing 85 pitches before he could get through the fifth inning. That was partly due to Boston fouling off 22 of his offerings despite collecting only three hits. This was Detmers' second straight short scoreless start -- he lasted only 4.1 innings against the Yankees in his previous appearance despite allowing zero runs. It's impressive that the left-hander has logged 8.2 scoreless frames against two top offenses, but his fantasy impact is muted by the fact that he hasn't been able to go deep into contests.
