Speier goes on DL

Apparently Justin Speier’s problems over the weekend were not related to the flu after all. The Angels placed the right-hander on the 15-day disabled list with “a non-baseball related medical condition.” As of now, the team has not elaborated. Speier was not on hand for Saturday’s game and was in the clubhouse Sunday. At that time Speier said he had the flu and was getting his strength back. The only way the Angels can release his actual condition is if Speier actually signs a consent form. We will know shortly if he has done that.

To take Speier’s place on the roster, the Angels have recalled Kendry Morales. The move returns the Angels to an 11-man pitching staff.
