Look for Cam Bedrosian (groin) who is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut today. 

Tyler Skaggs (shoulder) plans to throw a bullpen session Friday or Saturday.

Good first inning for Shoe, strikes out two.

4 K's in 2 innings...got the splity working.

Shoemaker looks good. Stuff looks pretty great this early into Spring Training.

and he normally struggles in Az because his splitter doesn't split.

He doesn't look as thin as he's been in previous Springs -- dude always seems to lose a ton of weight during the offseason and historically hasn't pitched well until he put some of it back on.

Revere is on fire....Maybin may have a platoon buddy.....

[Docwaukee]

Kruger has been getting more time than I would have expected for a recent draftee from the 20th round.  

[NachoPop]

0 for 15 .111ops    vs    10 for 19 1.204ops

Early but he's going to want to start hitting soon

 

On a side note, Cron has more steals than Trout. Gotta love spring training

[Ohtaniland]

Could someone let our clubhouse leader Cameron Maybin know that spring training has begun.

That guy got some praise even before ST from scouts outside the Angels system.   Apparently he started life in the Pac 10, transferred to OCC then went to some SEC school and looked like a completely different hitter.

I know it's partly due to the WBC, but it seems our prospects are getting a lot more playing time than usual. Hermosillo has gotten a lot more playing time than I expected. 

[Blarg]

I think I heard Terry Smith say that the Angels played a split squad game at 10 am. 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

The Angels reassigned Matt Thaiss, their first-round pick from last year, to minor league camp. ...

Kaleb Cowart and Tony Sanchez homered, and Michael Hermosillo had a double and a triple in the B game…
