Description: Angels center fielder Peter Bourjos (hamstring) has been activated from the disabled list. | Insight: He was batting .313 with 12 runs scored, two homers, eight RBI and an .827 OPS before the late-April injury. Of significance is whether the team will put Bourjos back in the leadoff spot, or leave just-moved Mike Trout at the top of the order. Bourjos loses a lot of value if he's down in the order. | | |

Description: Angels outfielder Peter Bourjos is not in Wednesday's lineup against Oakland. | Insight: Bourjos (.197, 1 HR, 9 RBI) is not on many radar screens at the moment, but he does have talent. Kole Calhoun will make his first major league start in left field and bat eighth. | | |

With Jayson Werth and Mike Morse both on the disabled list for the forseeable future, Bourjos would certainly fill a need for Washington. Arizona, Kansas City and Toronto have also inquired about Bourjos' availability. | | |

Description: Peter Bourjos won't start Thursday against the Blue Jays. | Insight: Bourjos' role has been reduced drastically since Mike Trout's callup from Triple-A late last week. He probably won't have a whole lot of fantasy value going forward. | | |

Description: The Angels are still in the market for a leadoff hitter.
SOURCE: SI.COM | Insight: Peter Bourjos definitely isn't ready for that role and the team isn't excited about trying Erick Aybar there again this season. If they find a leadoff hitter it will likely be an OF which will put Bourjos back in the minors. Scott Podsednik is one of the only options left out there. | | |
