The Angels have had a rough time with catchers this year.
Angels’ Bobby Wilson On 7-Day Concussion DL
The Angels have lost yet another catcher to injury.
Chris Iannetta, expected to start and produce at the plate, was hitting .197 when he went down with a wrist injury that will likely keep him out until after the All-Star Break.
Monday night, his replacement, Bobby Wilson, was injured in the Angels' loss to the Mariners:
Angels C Bobby Wilson left Monday’s game in the second inning for precautionary reasons after getting hit in the mask by a foul tip. Hester took Wilson’s place.The Angels are taking more than precautions:
#Angels have placed @BW46 on 7-day concussion DL and have recalled @HankConger16 who is starting tonight. Lineup: yfrog.com/hsquzjej

It's confusing when they put players' Twitter handles in tweets, but I guess that keeps them shorter. @BW46 is Wilson; Hank Conger, a former No. 1 draft pick of the Angels, did not make the team out of spring training, but was hitting .338/.372/.500 at Triple-A Salt Lake.
Maybe he’ll be the answer to the Angels’ .500 rut. Or not. Who knows, the way their season has gone?
