The Angels rotation is deep enough to absorb the loss of C.J. Wilson, who informed the team Thursday that he will undergo surgery to shave down bone spurs in his elbow, a procedure that will sideline the left-hander for the rest of this season but is not expected to affect his availability for 2016.
However, the surgery probably will prevent the Angels from trading Wilson until next spring or early next season, after he shows he is fully recovered and has regained the form that made him durable and relatively dependable for the last five years.
