Peter Bourjos appears set as the starting center fielder for the Angels after a season filled with rumors and little playing time in 2012.

However, if he starts off slow than Mike Scioscia may be tempted to replace him with Vernon Wells.

"I'm not going to put that pressure on myself," Bourjos said. "I don't know if I have to or I don't. I don't know what they're thinking, Scioscia, the front office or the coaches. But I'm going to go out, play my game, and if I get off to a slow start, I get off to a slow start. That's it. But hopefully I put together some good at-bats and help the team win. That's all I can do."
