Injuries keep mounting for LA Angels

So far in the past month the LA Angels have lost two relievers to Tommy John surgery ,Blake Wood and Keynan Middleton (torn UCL in their elbows). Then back-up catcher Rene Rivera had to have surgery to repair a torn meniscus which will put him ou until after thee All-Star Break. More recently Kole Calhoun went down with an oblique injury and Andrelton Simmons went down with a Grade 2 ankle sprain. The big blow was Japanese tw0-way phenom Shohei Ohtani going on the DL last week with UCL damage in his elbow.

You can now add Garrett Richards (hamstring) and Zack Cozart (sprained shoulder) to that list, although the extent of their injuries is not yet known.
