Let's make sure it's OK, and I'll get back in there [tonight]."
September 4, 2004
Troy Glaus is okay with playing DH now as he comes back from surgery, but he wants to be at third base next season, according to the LA Times. "I have no intention of making that switch next year. My intent is to come back and play third base," said Glaus, who will be a free agent at season's end.

However, it remains extremely unlikely he will be back in action this season.

"You don't want to put his career at risk."

May 18, 2004
Troy Glaus will be a free agent at the end of the season, and his shoulder surgery later this week could mark the end of his career as an Angel, according to the LA Times.

May 17, 2004
Troy Glaus will have surgery on his right shoulder Friday and might be sidelined for the rest of the season, according to the AP. He discovered last season that he has a frayed labrum and rotator cuff, but he made the decision then to try rehabilitating the injury rather than going under the knife. Needless to say, Glaus will be placed on the 60-day disabled list.

Troy Glaus hit off a tee and took ground balls at first base Saturday at Class-A Rancho Cucamonga, according to the L.A. Times.It's not clear when Glaus might return from his knee and shoulder problems, but it doesn't look likely that it will be within the next few games.
May 15, 2004
Sidelined with a pair of injured shoulders and a sprained knee, Troy Glaus will play DH once he's able to run, according to the LA Times. Once Glaus' shoulder is strong enough to do some throwing, manager Mike Scioscia will consider moving Glaus to first base in place of the injured Darin Erstad. Even though Glaus has never played first base n the big leagues before, such a move would allow the club to keep Tim Salmon -- once he returns from the DL -- in the lineup as a DH.
May 14, 2004
The LA Times reports that an MRI revealed that the condition in the sore shoulder of Troy Glaus is "similar" to the one that cut last season short in July. An MRI on his right knee also revealed a sprained ligament, but the Angels are more concerned about the shoulder. "Our plan right now is that he'll be back," GM Bill Stoneman said. "We're not making a roster move, so as of now, we hope he'll be back sooner than the 15-day disabled list period... . The information I got was that the knee will resolve itself in short order."
