- Angels Old Friend Dallas McPherson homered three times in one game for Albuquerque.
- Here's today's Angels and Dodgers one-sentence recaps.
- The Mariners, stuck looking for more offense, have promoted Jeremy Reed to the big club.
- No Angel or Dodger prospect made Offensive Player of the Week or Pitcher of the Week.
- Here's a couple from this week's BA
Prospect Hot Sheet:
No. 12 PETER BOURJOS, CF ANGELS
Also "In the Team Photo":
Team: high Class A Rancho Cucamonga (California)
Age: 21
Why He's Here: .467/.485/.600 (14-for-30), 2 2B, 1 3B, 8 R, 2 RBIs, 1 BB, 5 SO, 5-for-6 SB
The Scoop: After missing much of 2007 because of surgery on his left fingers, Bourjos has quietly impressed in a move to high Class A. He's raised his season line to .349/.382/.493. The biggest question has been his hit tool, and he seems to be answering that while displaying good speed with 24 steals in 26 attempts. A 10th-round pick in 2005, Bourjos is expected to show above-average power, but has just one home run so far in the Cal League. He is currently on a seven-game hitting streak and is hitting .419 in the month of May.Triple-A Las Vegas 3B Andy LaRoche (Dodgers) is all dressed up with nowhere to go. Back from surgery to repair a thumb ligament, the 24-year-old is tolling in Triple-A while rookie Blake DeWitt continues to set the National League ablaze. LaRoche, taking advantage of hometown Cashman Field, batted .308/.591/.769 (4-for-13) this week with a pair of home runs, five RBIs, six runs, a strikeout and nine walks. You can't blame Pacific Coast League pitchers for their care in facing LaRoche, especially in his own park. He's batted .347/.437/.622 in Las Vegas in parts of the past three seasons

O'Day: (S, 2), 2.0 IP, 1 R, 0 ER, 3 H, 1 K, 0 BB, 2.25 ERA
Shane Loux resumed the Dr. Jekyll part of his resume, striking out only two but somehow surviving to allow only a pair of runs. The Bees rallied for two in the top of the ninth, which was good because Fresno threatened in the bottom of the frame and would have forced extras when they scored on Justin Leone's sac fly.

Castillo: 2-3, 1 2B
Anton: (W, 6-2), 9.0 IP, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 H, 3 K, 0 BB, 1.72 ERA
Nobody expected Michael Anton to last as a starter, but here he is going deep, pitching a complete game, two-hit shutout, his second CG of the year, leading the minors in that category. He's actually pitched into the seventh or beyond in seven of his nine starts this year. That ought to get him some real attention.
