Justin Bour was another player the Angels thought would strengthen their line-up especially from the left side of the plate.  Unfortunately Bour was in a season-long slump that he only broke out of for about a three week period in July.  He finished with a .172 batting average eight homers, and 26 RBIs. He struck out 52 times in only 151 at-bats which means once every three times he was at the plate. No Bueno!   So the Angels and Bour are parting ways.
