Another two years was added to the player development contract between the Angels and the Single-A Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, meaning that rehabbing Angels will be spending time in the Inland Empire through the 2010 season. Here is the link to the story from Pete Marshall. The Quakes have been an Angels affiliate since 2001 and a number of current Angels have played in Rancho Cucamonga, including Jeff Mathis, Mike Napoli, Reggie Willits, Francisco Rodriguez, Joe Saunders and Howie Kendrick, among others.
