MRI comes back clean on shoulder of Angels' Zach Neto

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- An MRI test showed no structural damage in Zach Neto's surgically repaired right shoulder.

The Los Angeles Angels shortstop was injured on a head-first slide into second base Tuesday night. He is day-to-day.

"It's a sigh of relief finding out nothing was structurally messed up," Neto said after sitting out Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. "It's pretty sore right now, but it's getting better."

With the Angels off on Thursday and Monday, there is a chance Neto, 24, might sit out this weekend's series against the Washington Nationals, giving him six days of rest and rehabilitation before Tuesday's series opener in Atlanta.
