TEMPE, Ariz. -- Angels starter Jered Weaver arrived to camp on Thursday morning with tightness in his neck and was sent for a precautionary MRI exam, general manager Billy Eppler said.
Weaver struggled mightily the previous day in a 13-13 tie with the Dodgers, serving up three home runs, recording only eight outs and topping out at 81 mph with his fastball.
The Angels' rotation depth has already been tested this spring. Tyler Skaggs (Tommy John surgery) and C.J. Wilson (left shoulder tendinitis) project to begin the season on the disabled list, Andrew Heaney had his first start skipped due to illness, and Matt Shoemaker has given up four home runs in five innings.
