Tuesday Twitter Stalking: Joel Pineiro Back In Rotation, Garrett Richards To The DL

After a disappointing 8-4 loss to division leading ( + 5 games) Texas the Angels made a flurry of roster moves as a result of rookie Garrett Richards first inning abductor strain. Angels Broadcaster Victor Rojas Tweets that after a pretty strong relief appearance last night Joel Pineiro will be thrust back into the Halos rotation making his return start against the Orioles Saturday.

"#Angels place Garret Richards on DL & send Andrew Romine to AAA…Trevor Bell & Horacio Ramirez called up. Joel Piñeiro will start Saturday."

It will be interesting to see if Pineiro can stick in the rotation. If he can regain his control and revert to his form from earlier this season that would be huge for the Halos.
