Street diagnosed with right lat strain

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Angels right-hander Huston Street has a right lat strain and will not throw for three to four weeks, putting his availability for Opening Day in doubt, general manager Billy Eppler said Saturday.

Street sustained the injury while making his spring debut against the Brewers on Friday at Tempe Diablo Stadium. The 33-year-old veteran faced two batters before walking off the field with a team trainer. Street said he felt tightness under his right armpit after throwing a changeup to Jonathan Villar. He tried throwing one more pitch -- a fastball that struck out Villar swinging -- but experienced more discomfort, leading to his exit.
