Kavadas is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Astros, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
The Astros are sending righty Spencer Arrighetti to the bump, but the left-handed-hitting Kavadas will nonetheless begin the contest on the bench. It's the first time since Sept. 1 that Kavadas will be absent from the lineup against a right-hander. Logan O'Hoppe is getting a start at designated hitter for the Angels while Matt Thaiss does the catching.
