With Kendry Morales out for quite some time, it's conceivable that Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell could be a fit for the Angels.
Morales fractured his left ankle while leaping onto home plate to celebrate a walkoff grand slam against the Mariners on Saturday. He is expected to be out until at least September.
Lowell, who has played sparingly recently, could be just what the Angels seek, particularly if the Red Sox pick up at least three quarters of his $12 million salary, as they were prepared to do when trying to trade Lowell to Texas last winter.

Red Sox pitcher Josh Beckett expressed frustration over his lower-back, which has forced him to slow down his rehab process.
Beckett said he needs to be 100 percent before he picks up a baseball again.
He was scheduled to come off the 15-day disabled list on June 3, but that's unlikely given his recent setback.
"It's Groundhog Day right now," Beckett said Sunday. "Just trying to get things better."

Red Sox utilityman Bill Hall pitched on Friday night in a rough loss to the Royals, pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning.
Boston lost to Kansas City 12-5 at Fenway Park.
Red Sox manager Terry Francona called on Hall to work the ninth and he turned out to be the team's most effective pitcher of the night.
He induced three straight groundouts.
"I felt good," said Hall. "I hadn't pitched since high school. It was just something, if I ever got the chance, I always wanted to just to see if I still had it. I almost got drafted as a pitcher in high school. I threw pretty hard, so it was fun to get back out there."
