The Angels called-up 3B prospect Brandon Wood to fill-in for the injured Macier Izturis until Howie Kendrick is activated off the Dl later this week. When izutirs went down, the Angels were forced to move 3B Chone Figgins to 3B and put Robb Quinlan at 3B. Recalling Wood made perfect sense.
What made no frickin' sense was starting Quinlan at 3B in last night's game while Wood rotted on the bench. I have no idea why the Angels believe this is a smart thing to do with their top hitting prospect. Wood should be a Troy Glaus type of hitter initially, but the Angels apparently have no intentions of letting him play.
