Luis Rengifo Expected to Recover for Opening Day

Luis Rengifo, the Los Angeles Angels utility man, is on track to recover from a hamstring injury in time for Opening Day, according to manager Ron Washington. Rengifo has returned to the Cactus League lineup after being eased back into play following wrist surgery last August. He is expected to participate in a game against the White Sox and aims to be a versatile option for the team if he avoids any setbacks. Despite previous injuries that limited his play, Rengifo expressed his desire to be in the lineup every day for the upcoming season. His performance in the upcoming games will be crucial as he competes for a starting position, likely at second base. The Angels plan to finalize their Opening Day lineup soon, which will provide clarity on Rengifo's role.
