Bourjos to see more at-bats : With both Ryan Langerhans and Vernon Wells going down with injuries during Sunday's loss to the Padres, outfielder Peter Bourjos is expected to see the majority of starts in center field, reports MLB.com. Bourjos replaced Wells in the lineup in the 3-2 loss to San Diego and went 1 for 4 at the plate. He is batting .203 with nine RBI and one steal on the season. (Updated 05/20/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Bourjos started the year as the Angels starting center fielder but struggled mightily over the first month of the season. He was eventually replaced by Mike Trout in the lineup, but now looks to be in line to see everyday at-bats again. However, the Angels will also likely call somebody up from the minors on Monday, but most believe Bourjos will see the majority of the playing time until the Angels get healthy and Torii Hunter back from the restricted list. While he has the speed to make a difference in Fantasy, only owners in deeper formats should think about getting the 24-year-old active heading into Week 8 (May 21-27). (Updated 05/20/2012).

05/17/2012 00:46 Pujols goes deep, Angels win in first game after Hatcher's dismissal
Albert Pujols welcomed his new hitting coach to town with a go-ahead three-run homer and Vernon Wells added a two-run shot to lead the Los Angeles Angels to a 7-2 victory against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night.
After batting .204 in 51 games for the Angels in 2010, Peter Bourjos was given the keys to the center field job last season and showed Fantasy owners a lot to like. He got off to a fast start but slumped during the middle months and started June with a .236 average. But it would not dip lower than that again in 2011 as he hit .291 over his final 91 games and finished the year with 12 home runs, 43 RBI and 22 stolen bases. While he posted a 124-to-32 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Bourjos got on base at a .327 clip and slugged .438 in his first full season in the majors. The Angels love his speed and upside, and as soon as he improves his strike-zone recognition, the 24-year-old should be able to blossom into an all-around offensive threat. He should be able to crack 30 stolen bases this season with a respectable average and low-end pop so consider Bourjos a viable mid- to late-round option in all Fantasy formats on Draft Day.
