Angels' Niko Goodrum: Swipes bag in team debut
Goodrum went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base Friday in a loss to the Royals.
Goodrum was claimed off waivers from Tampa Bay on Thursday and made his Angels debut one day later, starting at third base and batting fifth in the order. Though he went hitless in his team debut, the utility man drew a walk in his first plate appearance and subsequently stole second base. Goodrum could get regular at-bats given his versatility and Los Angeles' drastically depleted infield. He's struggled to make contact during his career as a major-leaguer but has demonstrated good speed with 47 stolen bases on 61 attempts.

Angels' Jo Adell: Swats homer Friday
Adell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to Kansas City.
Adell accounted for the Angels' only run with a 436-foot solo shot to center field. That held up until the ninth inning, when the Royals scored twice off Los Angeles closer Carlos Estevez to emerge with a comeback win. Adell has put together a modest four-game hitting streak, during which he has gone 5-for-15 with two homers and three RBI.

Angels' Carlos Estevez: Blows save, takes loss
Estevez (0-2) blew the save and took the loss Friday against Kansas City. He allowed two runs on three hits and no walks with one strikeout over one inning.
Estevez allowed a lead-taking, two-run homer to Adam Frazier in the ninth inning to blow his third save on the year. Oddly, the Angels closer has yet to walk a batter this season, but he has allowed three homers over 11.2 innings, leading to a 6.17 ERA. Despite the ugly ERA, Estevez remains securely planted in the Angels closer seat.

Angels' Griffin Canning: Solid in no-decision
Canning did not factor into the decision Friday against Kansas City, allowing three hits and two walks over 5.2 shutout innings. He struck out three.
Canning produced his first scoreless start of the season Friday night as he held the Royals in check over his 90 pitches. The 28-year-old has been solid over his last five starts, tossing a 3.67 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 17:11 K:BB overing 27 innings. Canning is slated to face a struggling Cardinals offense at home in his next start.

Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Idle Friday
O'Hoppe isn't in the Angels' lineup Friday versus the Royals.
O'Hoppe will get a breather Friday after tallying six hits across his last three games. While he rests, Matt Thaiss will fill in as Los Angeles' backstop and bat sixth.

Angels' Niko Goodrum: Reports to big-league club
The Angels activated Goodrum on Friday.
Goodrum had been with the Rays' Triple-A affiliate when he was DFA'd and later claimed by the Angels, but he will return to the majors as replacement depth for Ehire Adrianza, (back) who landed on the injured list Friday. Goodrum has experience at every position other than catcher, though he will likely return to the minors once Los Angeles' heavily-depleted infield unit begins returning from the IL.

Angels' Ehire Adrianza: Lands on injured list
The Angels placed Adrianza on the 10-day injured list Friday with back spasms, retroactive to Thursday.
Adrianza reported having problems with his lower back Friday, and the issue is apparently severe enough to warrant a trip to the injured list. Niko Goodrum will join the active roster to take Adrianza's spot after being claimed off waivers from Tampa Bay on Thursday.

Angels' Ehire Adrianza: Dealing with back problems
Adrianza said Friday that he has experienced issues with his lower back, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
It's uncertain whether or not Adrianza will require a trip to the injured list, but he said he received an MRI on Friday, which should help determine how long he may be out for. The 34-year-old has played in eight games since joining the Angels in late April, slashing .192/.250/.346 with two RBI in 28 plate appearances.

Angels' Reid Detmers: Another dreadful outing
Detmers (3-4) was hit with the loss against the Royals on Thursday, allowing six runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings.
Detmers cruised through the first two innings before the first four batters got on base to open the third, eventually leading to four runs. He was touched up again in the fifth, marking his third consecutive outing in which he's allowed at least five runs. Surprisingly, the lefty has still managed to get through at least five innings in all eight of his starts this season despite his recent struggles, though he's lost four straight outings.

Angels' Drew Ellis: Signs with Angels
Ellis signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Thursday.
Ellis earned 29 plate appearances with the Phillies in 2023, but he began the 2024 season with the Charleston Dirty Birds of the Atlantic League. Even with mounting injuries in the Angels' infield, he's unlikely to get an immediate opportunity in the majors.

Angels' Kyren Paris: Promoted to majors
Paris was recalled from Double-A Rocket City on Thursday.
With both Brandon Drury (hamstring) and Luis Rengifo (illness) sidelined, the Angels were shorthanded along the infield. Paris boasts enough defensive versatility to help the team in that regard, as he is capable of playing second base and shortstop as well as in the outfield. His ability to contribute as a hitter is far less clear, as he was striking out at a 39.1 percent clip across 92 plate appearances with Rocket City prior to his promotion.

Angels' Luis Rengifo: Sidelined by illness
Rengifo (illness) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.
Rengifo has been held out of the lineup for five straight games with the illness, so his stint on the injured list will be retroactive to May 6. Kyren Paris was recalled from Double-A Rocket City in a corresponding move and should take over in a utility role while Rengifo is sidelined.

Angels' Brandon Drury: Placed on injured list
Drury (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.
Drury exited Wednesday's game after dealing with tightness in his hamstring, an issue he first dealt with in mid-April. He'll be sidelined for at least the next 10 days, leaving Luis Guillorme as the Angels' projected starting second baseman in the short term.

Angels' Luis Guillorme: In Thursday's lineup
Guillorme will hit eighth and play second base Thursday against the Royals.
The Angels acquired Guillorme Thursday and he'll immediately be set for his debut with the team. With Brandon Drury (hamstring) landing on the injured list, Guillorme could be in line for regular playing time in the short term.

Angels' Kelvin Caceres: Placed on MLB 60-day IL
The Angels recalled Caceres (lat) from Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday and placed him on the 60-day injured list.
Caceres had already been on the 60-day IL at Salt Lake due to a strained right lat, but his move will create room for Niko Goodrum, who was claimed off waivers from the Rays on Thursday. Caceres has yet to make an appearance on the mound this season, and he will likely return to Triple-A once he fully recovers.

Angels' Niko Goodrum: Claimed by Angels
The Angels claimed Goodrum off waivers from the Rays on Thursday.
Goodrum was DFA'd by the Rays on Monday after going 3-for-16 with six strikeouts across nine games with Tampa Bay. The 32-year-old utility man will likely remain in Triple-A as he moves into the Angels organization, though he will claim a spot on the 40-man roster. Kelvin Caceres (lat) was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake and placed on the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.
