ANAHEIM -- The Angels placed right-handed reliever Mike Morin on the 10-day disabled list Friday with neck tightness, clearing a roster spot for right-hander Alex Meyer, who was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake and started the club's series opener with the Blue Jays.
Manager Mike Scioscia said Morin first complained of neck soreness a week ago, though the issue flared up in Houston. The move is retroactive to Thursday, meaning Morin is eligible to be activated on April 30 at the earliest.
"We hope [it's] not very serious," Scioscia said. "But it set him back enough to where he needs to take a step back and go on the disabled list.
