The Angels have placed outfielder Torii Hunter on the restricted list due to personal reasons. The Angels will select the contract of Ryan Langerhans from Triple A to take Hunters spot on the 25 man roster. Hunters son was charged with a crime earlier today in Texas. Luckily for the Angels, players on the restricted list do not count toward a team's 25 man or 40 man roster.
Analysis: Obviously this is very bad news for Hunter but at least Peter Bourjos will get some playing time in right field. Perhaps he could utilize this playing opportunity to showcase his talents for other teams that are interested in acquiring him via trade. (ex: nationals.)
