Nava, Rasmus join crowded Angels disabled list

LOS ANGELES -- The Angels' disabled list grew to nine players on Tuesday, with left fielder Daniel Nava and long reliever Cory Rasmus each nursing groin strains that will keep them out a couple of weeks.

Outfielder Rafael Ortega and reliever A.J. Achter were called up to replace them, bringing more turmoil to a Triple-A Salt Lake roster that is feeling aftershocks from the Angels' rash of injuries.

"It's a revolving door out there," Achter said Tuesday, five days after being sent down to Triple-A for the second time this season.
