ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dan Haren is expected to miss his next start for the Los Angeles Angels because of back stiffness.
The right-hander went on the disabled list earlier this month for the same problem, which has apparently hampered him all year. He was set to pitch Wednesday against Texas.
The Angels also announced that outfielder Mark Trumbo would miss Monday night’s game at Texas because of back spasms. He felt pain during batting practice on Sunday.
