Angels: Glaus to have another MRI on shoulder

News
Angels’ third baseman Troy Glaus, who has been out since July 24 with a right shoulder contusion, will undergo a second MRI on Tuesday according to a report on the team’s web site. Dr. Lewis Yocum, with whom Glaus met on Monday, recommended the test be done. Glaus played two minor-league rehabilitation games last week and aggravated the injury trying to make a throw.

We’re not going to hold our breath waiting for good results from the MRI. Hate to say it, but it’s looking more and more like Troy’s season could be over. Scott Spiezio and Alfredo Amezaga will continue to play third base until Glaus returns.

Although GM Bill Stoneman says that he is not committed to resting Troy Glaus and Erstad for the rest of the season, the reality is that there is absolutely no reason for them to return and play if the Angels are double-digit games out of the playoff race. Dr. Lewis Yocum has an MRI scheduled for Glaus today, which should shed some light on his status for the rest of the year, and the recommendation for Erstad was continued physical therapy on his troublesome hamstring. It is not likely that either of the two will be helping you down the stretch, so contingency plans are a must.

glad I am not the guy in my league who traded away Bret Boone for him.

If I owned Glaus, I'd certainly be looking for an option for the rest of the year.

Glad that I just pulled the trigger on a deal for Rolen. Like many others, Glaus spoiled us with that sweet swing in the World Series.

from what i have read it sounds like they angels are readying themselves to be without glaus the rest of the season, and so should his fantasy owners. pick up a serviceable FA like tony batista.
