Angels' Gio Urshela: Ditches crutches
Urshela (pelvis) said Sunday that he resumed walking without the aid of crutches earlier in the week, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Urshela has been out since mid-June with a fractured left pelvis, an injury that the Angels announced will keep him out for the remainder of the season. Fortunately for Urshela, he'll avoid surgery to address the injury, and he said Sunday that he should be in store for a normal offseason. The 31-year-old is set to become a free agent this winter and will likely have to settle for a one-year deal on the open market.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Out for season
Urshela doesn't need surgery on his fractured pelvis, but he will miss the remainder of the season, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Urshela took an awkward tumble while running to first base which forced him out of Thursday's game against Texas. The good news is that he won't need to undergo surgery, so he could be ready for the start of spring training next year, but the book appears to be closed for Urshela this season after he slashed .299/.329/.374 with 24 RBI over 228 plate appearances.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Visiting with specialists
Urshela (pelvis) visited with a specialist earlier in the week and will see another on Wednesday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
The Angels will have a better sense of his timeline after the visit Wednesday, Bollinger notes. Urshela was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left pelvis fracture before Friday's game. The veteran infielder will miss at least another week, but it's possible this will be an injury that keeps him out of action for a longer period.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Shelved with pelvis fracture
Urshela was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left pelvis fracture, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Urshela sustained the injury in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Rangers, when he stumbled awkwardly over first base while trying to beat out a double-play ball. The Angels haven't yet provided a timeline for Urshela's return, but his move to the IL means he'll be out for at least a week and a half. The Angels called up Michael Stefanic from Triple-A Salt Lake to take Urshela's spot on the active roster.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Back in lineup
Urshela (back) is starting at first base Thursday against the Rangers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Back soreness kept Urshela out of the Angels' last two games, but the issue appears to have subsided ahead of Thursday's contest. Urshela holds just a .400 OPS over the past seven days, but he will fill in at first base for Jared Walsh, who hasn't recorded a hit since June 2.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Battling back issue
Urshela has been dealing with a back injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
The injury explains why he's out of the lineup Monday against the Rangers for the fourth time in six games, although it could also be in part due to Anthony Rendon's recent return from the injured list. At this point, Urshela's injury seems like a day-to-day situation.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Handling utility role
Urshela is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
On the bench for the fourth time in six games, Urshela looks to have moved into a utility role in the wake of Anthony Rendon's recent return from the 10-day injured list. Since Urshela has performed at just below a league-average level as a hitter (97 wRC+, .313 woBA) this season and is capable of playing all four infield spots, he should still be in line for a handful of starts per week.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Back in starting lineup
Urshela (back) is hitting eighth and playing first base versus the Mariners on Saturday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Urshela was a late scratch from the lineup Friday against Seattle, but it was described as precautionary and the infielder is feeling well enough to go for Saturday's contest. Jared Walsh heads back to the bench with Urshela handling first base.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Scratched with back tightness
Urshela was scratched from the lineup Friday against the Mariners due to lower back tightness, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
This will thrust the struggling Jared Walsh into the Angels' starting lineup at first base. It sounds like a minor issue for Urshela, who has posted a .304/.335/.382 slash line in 221 plate appearances this season while playing nearly every day at various spots around the infield.

Angels' Gio Urshela: Homers, drives in three in loss
Urshela went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Saturday's 8-5 extra-inning loss to the Marlins.
Each of Urshela's hits knocked in a run, and he came up a triple shy of the cycle. The infielder hasn't supplied much power this season, as his solo shot was just his second homer in 49 contests on the year, and he's added just seven doubles. He's at least made consistent contact lately, hitting safely in 10 of his last 12 games to raise his slash line to .318/.337/.392 with 23 RBI, 19 runs scored and three stolen bases through 184 plate appearances.
