Kendrick proves he's ready

Howie Kendrick should be back in an Angels uniform at some point during the Angels series here in Detroit and it is likely he could be in uniform today. Kendrick has done everything he can to show he has healed from a broken left hand. His latest evidence came Monday night with a three-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to rally Triple-A Salt Lake to a 5-3 victory over Sacramento. Kendrick added a sacrifice fly and a walk in his four plate appearances Monday. Word on any roster change should come shortly.

UPDATE: Kendrick played at Salt Lake on Tuesday, but could be set to rejoin the Angels on Wednesday.
