  • The Angels designated Calhoun for assignment Thursday, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports. Calhoun has been the Angels' primary designated hitter and cleanup man against right-handed pitching since he was added to the roster back in early May. However, after slashing just .245/.315/.380 over 254 plate appearances, the Halos have decided to remove him from the 26-man and 40-man rosters. Calhoun seems likely to clear waivers. Manager Ron Washington could opt to filter through multiple players at DH down the stretch.

  • Angels' Willie Calhoun: Clubs late homer
    By RotoWire

    Calhoun went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Blue Jays. Calhoun's ninth-inning blast prevented the Angels from getting shut out. The 29-year-old's playing time has been down lately due to a stretch heavy with left-handed starters for the Angels' opponents. It looks like Calhoun is in a strict platoon role at this point of the season. Overall, he has a .248/.316/.385 slash line, five homers, 20 RBI, 26 runs scored, 16 doubles and no stolen bases over 67 contests.

  • Calhoun is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports. With southpaw MacKenzie Gore taking the hill for the Nationals, the lefty-hitting Calhoun will remain on the bench for the series finale. Calhoun has now been held out of the lineup in five straight contests, with the Angels facing off against left-handed staters in the last four of those games. The Angels will begin a three-game series Monday against a Toronto squad that features an all-right-handed rotation, so Calhoun should regain a regular spot in the lineup during the upcoming week.
