Calhoun out of the lineup? Something brewing?

[Dtwncbad]

Anytime this time of year that a true regular is out of the lineup the natural speculation is there is a trade very close.

I know Maybin got hurt and that explains Revere in left and explains the roster move to bring in Robinson, but it doesn't fully explain why he is starting and Calhoun is sitting.

Todd Frazier was getting a night off and then that trade was announced. . .

I am not predicting a trade as the most likely explanation it is just something it is impossible to not consider.

Scheduled day off.

With a day off tomorrow and Monday? Strange but I hope he isn't traded.

He also hasn't been very good against left handers... Scioscia loves to platoon and likes to play guys immediately when they get called up...

Unless your name is Cron

Probably a normal day of rest. Could also be a signal that the Angels are standing down on the season a bit.

It's obvious he got the day off because a lefty was pitching.

Didn't homie just have a big hit against Doolittle?

He chose between Revere and Calhoun and it turns out Revere has better numbers against Gio. That took about 30 seconds to discover

That was a really nice stroke he put on that ball too.

Yeah actually, something is brewing. Some coffee in the clubhouse post-game. 

[CaliAngel]

Please do not get rid of Calhoun. That would be a mistake IMHO.

they're not trading Kole in a down year after extending him.
