  • Scratched with sore thumb
    Schanuel was scratched from the Angels' lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Mariners due to left thumb soreness.

    Advice: Schanuel was originally set to start at first base and bat in the leadoff spot Friday, but thumb problems will prevent him from doing so. Willie Calhoun will cover first base in Schanuel's place, moving Matt Thaiss into the DH spot while batting seventh. Rotowire.com Today, 6:19 pm
     
  • Nolan Schanuel scratched Friday with sore thumb
    Nolan Schanuel was scratched from the Angels’ starting lineup on Friday night due to a sore left thumb.

    Advice: No word yet on the extent of the injury, but since he was in the initial lineup it’s unlikely to be too serious. Willie Calhoun will cover first base in his absence while Matt Thaiss will enter the lineup as the team’s designated hitter against Bryan Woo and the Mariners on Friday night.
