Giavotella hit a solo home run, his third, as part of a 4-for-4 game with two runs scored in Monday's loss to the Twins.

Giavotella still has a mediocre .269/.294/.378 batting line, but he has picked it up since May. Monday's performance brought his numbers in June up to a robust .304/.331/.415. He has just two home runs in that span and shouldn't be expected to provide much in the way of power, but Giavotella makes consistent enough contact to hit for solid average and has played his way into regular at-bats in the Angels' infield, and that makes him worth a look at least in AL-only formats and deep mixers.
