FanHouse Kevin Jepsen

Poppin' out of the box scores and right into your cubicle, the Roto Rush is your double espresso shot of fantasy baseball advice every weekday.

Don't blame yourself if you didn't see a big line coming from Trevor Cahill. Coming off a three-inning, three-run game in Chicago, Cahill had to travel to Texas to take on a pretty good offense. On Wednesday, this offense was without Michael Young and Josh Hamilton, but that still left the hot Julio Borbon (.323 BA coming into the game) and Elvis Andrus (coming off a 16-game hitting streak), stars Ian Kinsler and Nelson Cruz, and other players that have been hot over the course of September.

BOSTON -- As far as Mike Scioscia is concerned, the Angels' late-inning relief situation isn't "unsettled." It is, however, fluid.

Scioscia explained Tuesday that hot rookie setup man Kevin Jepsen will continue to be used, at times, in the ninth inning as well as the eighth, but it sounds as if Scioscia still wants to use struggling closer Brian Fuentes to get the final out.

Just not always the final three.

"I think it's evolved into -- we're going to look at matchups if they're available," Scioscia said. "If there's some matchups we can take advantage of by rolling [Jepsen] over to the ninth inning, we'll look at it. If there aren't we have every confidence that Brian's going to go out there and get it done."

My colleague Matt Snyder either has a very tuned in crystal ball or knows more about baseball then the rest of us. In this morning's Roto Rush he spouted off that Brandon Wood would force the Angels to promote him soon.

ANAHEIM -- The Angels took the field on Friday night.

All 24 of them.

The 25th roster spot, the one that belonged to Nick Adenhart before he and two friends were killed in a car accident in the early hours of Thursday morning, remained vacant as the club returned to action. Adenhart's grieving teammates played a game against the Boston Red Sox.

Wondering which young players could have an impact in the majors this year? Let MLB FanHouse guide the way in Better Know a Prospect. In this edition we look at three players from the Angels' system.

Kevin Jepsen, RP: This organization's best prospects are either no longer considered rookies (i.e., Brandon Wood and Sean Rodriguez) or still a year or two away (i.e., Jordan Walden, Hank Conger and Peter Bourjos), but Jepsen is one of several youngsters the team will lean on heavily this year.
