Albert Pujols is in the designated hitter spot Wednesday due to soreness in his surgically-repaired right knee.

Pujols has now started 17 games at first base and 15 in the designated hitter spot due to issues with his right knee and left foot. The ailments no doubt have contributed to a disappointing .231/.317/.397 batting line this season. Mark Trumbo is playing first base Wednesday. May 8 - 6:50 PM

CF	1	Peter Bourjos D.L. Peter Bourjos (hamstring) has begun light jogging and batting practice. Bourjos is increasing the pace of his workouts daily. He's likely to need a few minor league rehab games before returning to the Angels' lineup, but it looks likely that he'll return in early June. Hamstring injuries can tend to linger and pose a high re-injury risk however, so play it cautiously when re-inserting the speedy outfielder into your fantasy lineups. May 24

DH	1	Mark Trumbo
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Jered Weaver D.L. Jered Weaver (elbow) is expected to start Wednesday against the Dodgers. Weaver, on the disabled list since April 9, will throw a bullpen session Sunday before he's cleared to rejoin the Angels. The Los Angeles Times expects Joe Blanton to lose his rotation spot when Weaver returns. May 25

	3	Joe Blanton
	4	Jason Vargas
	5	Tommy Hanson D.L. Tommy Hanson could be activated for Thursday night's game against the Dodgers. Hanson is scheduled to throw 75 pitches Saturday in an extended spring training and will likely only need one start before returning to the Angels' rotation. Hanson is returning from a three week stint on the bereavement list. May 25
	6	Jerome Williams
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Ernesto Frieri
	2	Ryan Madson D.L. Ryan Madson has experienced yet another setback in his recovery from Tommy John elbow surgery. Madson felt renewed soreness in his right arm while trying to throw this week and has been shut down indefinitely. There is no longer a timetable for his return and he can be dropped in most fantasy formats at this point. Ernesto Frieri is the Angels' ninth-inning man. May 22
	3	Scott Downs
	4	Sean Burnett
	5	Kevin Jepsen D.L. Angels manager Mike Scioscia said Kevin Jepsen (triceps) is "close" to rejoining the bullpen. Jepsen, who has been out since mid-April with a triceps ailment, will make a third rehab appearance this week, but it sounds like it could be his final one. He'll return to middle relief for the Halos. May 23

	13	Andrew Taylor D.L. Angels transferred LHP Andrew Taylor from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Taylor was diagnosed with a small tear in his labrum last month. While he won't need surgery, it's unclear how long he'll be sidelined. The 26-year-old posted a 4.27 ERA and 56/25 K/BB ratio over 59 innings between Double- and Triple-A last year. Apr 9
