Angels purchased the contract of OF Travis Witherspoon from Double-A Arkansas.

Witherspoon, 23, has a .264/.332/.417 batting line over four pro seasons and is 110-for-133 in stolen base attempts. He struggled a bit following a mid-season promotion to Double-A Arkansas, but the Angels aren't about to give up on the toolsy outfielder. Tue, Nov 20, 2012 02:58:00 PM

Travis Witherspoon - OF - Angels

Travis Witherspoon went 3-for-4 with a homer, a double and a walk Thursday for low Single-A Cedar Rapids.

Witherspoon, who turns 22 tomorrow, hit .309/.365/.472 in 71 games int he Pioneer League last year, and he's off to a .313/.405/.556 start this year. Still, perhaps his best stat is that he's 27-for-27 stealing bases the last two seasons. He's been caught just once in 38 attempts since debuting in 2009.

CF	1	Peter Bourjos D.L. Peter Bourjos (hamstring) continues to receive treatment in Arizona, and will rejoin the team when they return to Anaheim on Monday. Even the most optimistic of time frames have Bourjos returning to the lineup at the end of May or beginning of June. Hamstring injuries can be extremely detrimental to players like Bourjos who rely so heavily on their speed, as they tend to linger and pose a high re-injury risk. J.B. Shuck will continue to see additional time in left field while Bourjos is sidelined. May 10
RF	1	Josh Hamilton
DH	1	Mark Trumbo
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Jered Weaver D.L. Jered Weaver (elbow) threw 5 2/3 innings Wednesday afternoon in a start at extended spring training. Weaver allowed just one run and did not walk a batter while striking out nine. He threw 75 pitches, 62 of which were strikes. The right-hander is likely to rejoin the Angels' starting rotation early next week after missing the past month-plus with a fractured left elbow. May 22
	2	C.J. Wilson
	3	Joe Blanton
	4	Jason Vargas
	5	Tommy Hanson D.L. Angels manager Mike Scioscia said that Tommy Hanson would "most likely not" start on Saturday in Kansas City. Hanson has been away from the team since early May due to the death of his step-brother. The Halos were hoping he'd be ready to rejoin the rotation on Saturday, but he needs to get some work in at extended spring training first. The right-hander seems like to return sometime next week. May 21
	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. Kevin Jepsen (triceps) is expected to begin a rehab assignment early next week. Jepsen has been sidelined since April 12 with a strained right shoulder, but resumed throwing from a mound last weekend and hasn't had any setbacks. He remains on track to return from the DL sometime later this month. May 18
	6	Mark Lowe
	7	Garrett Richards
	8	Dane De La Rosa
	9	Michael Kohn
	10	Billy Buckner
	11	Ryan Brasier
	12	Robert Coello
	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
