Angels placed RHP Tommy Hanson on the 15-day disabled list with a right forearm injury. Hanson experienced tightness in his right forearm before his scheduled Wednesday start and eventually had to be scratched. He has registered an ugly 5.10 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 33/17 K/BB ratio in 47 2/3 innings this season for Anaheim. There is no timetable for his return.

Tommy Hanson (forearm) will undergo further tests on Thursday but is expected to be placed on the disabled list. Hanson developed tightness in his right forearm while warming up before Wednesday's start and had to be scratched. More will be known about his timetable after Thursday's exam. Garrett Richards seems like a likely option to replace Hanson in the rotation.

Tommy Hanson was scratched from Wednesday's start against the Tigers due to tightness in his right forearm. Hanson was a very late scratch, so he must have tightened up in the bullpen warming up before the game. Billy Buckner will start in his place. An update on Hanson's status should be provided after the game.

Tommy Hanson was skewered by the Mariners on Thursday for seven runs on six hits and two walks over just two innings. He escaped with the no-decision in a 10-9 victory. Thursday's turd spiked Hanson's ERA from 3.94 to 5.10. The right-hander has a far more difficult task than silencing the Mariners next week, when he takes a 4-2 record into a date with the Tigers in Detroit. Make sure to remove him from mixed league lineups.

Tommy Hanson held the Yankees to two runs over 6 1/3 innings Saturday as the Angels grabbed a 6-2 win. Hanson struck out a season-high eight batters in an impressive showing against a fairly stout New York lineup. The right-hander yielded both runs in a shaky third inning but was otherwise sharp, yielding just five total hits and one walk while moving to 4-2. He has an improving 3.94 ERA and makes for a decent fantasy streamer next week in a matchup at home against the Mariners. Hanson, 26, owns a 3.64 career ERA.

Tommy Hanson yielded two runs in five innings Saturday in a win over the Red Sox. Hanson threw 114 pitches before exiting, as he allowed even hits while walking four and striking out four. He's fortunate that he didn't give up more than two runs. Hanson hasn't completed seven innings in any of his starts this year and has just 23 strikeouts in 39 1/3 innings. His appeal is mixed leagues is limited at this point.

Tommy Hanson lost in his return from the restricted list on Friday, giving up five runs -- four earned -- in 6 1/3 innings against the Astros. Hanson recorded just two strikeouts against the free-swinging Astros tonight. We're rooting for him, but the stuff just doesn't seem to be there to make him a quality starter for the Angels.

Angels activated RHP Tommy Hanson from the restricted list. Hanson has been away from the team since early May due to a death in the family. He threw 75 pitches in a five-inning simulated game over the weekend and is likely to rejoin the rotation on Friday for a start against the Astros.
