Kendrick to disabled list
An MRI and CT Scan on Howie Kendrick's left hand showed a non-displaced fracture on his third metacarpal and the second baseman was placed on the 15-day disabled list. Kendrick was hit by a pitch in Tuesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Vladimir Guerrero also was examined and his diagnosis of a contusion was confirmed. Guerrero could return to action as early as Friday.
The Angels will recall a player to replace Kendrick either Thursday or before Friday's game. Since Robb Quinlan could take over at third base and Maicer Izturis can be moved to second, the Angels aren't limited as to who they recall. In other words, they don't just have to bring up an infielder. Brandon Wood is one of the candidates to join the Angels as are Kendry Morales and Terry Evans.

Is there an email address that can be used to talk with Angel management? I am a long-time Angel fan, but the last couple of years, it appears that management has shunned the real fans and have just done whatever they want for whatever reason. It is very difficult to watch a team that is so pathetic. I really feel sorry for the starting pitchers who know that they have to throw a shutout in order to last.
