ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Angels expected a boost with the return of third baseman Yoan Moncada, who was activated for Tuesday night's game against the Texas Rangers after missing five weeks because of right knee inflammation.
The switch-hitting Moncada, 30, was batting .237 with an .841 OPS, six homers, six doubles and 19 RBIs in 30 games when he went on the injured list June 2. Moncada is also one of the team's more disciplined hitters, with 32 strikeouts and 13 walks in 113 plate appearances.
