ANAHEIM \u2014 More than seven weeks after he first hurt his ankle, Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel continues to deal with the effects.<\/p>\n

Schanuel was out of the lineup on Sunday because of calf tightness, which he said has been a problem off and on ever since he first hurt his ankle. He said it was aggravated when he was trying to save a wild throw from shortstop Zach Neto in the fifth inning on Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s something I\u2019ve been dealing w\u201cith throughout the year and started to feel really good, and I think just one one play kind of like set it off a little bit,\u201d said Schanuel, who was hoping to be back in the lineup on Tuesday in Detroit. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t say like anything drastic. It just kind of flared up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schanuel admitted a few weeks ago that his lower body problems contributed to his slow start at the plate.<\/p>\n

All of which raises the question of whether the Angels should just put him on the 10-day injured list to get him back to 100%.<\/p>\n

Neither Schanuel nor Manager Kurt Suzuki said that\u2019s an option at this point.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think if I\u2019m able to play through it and it\u2019s bearable, then I\u2019m going to play,\u201d Schanuel said.<\/p>\n

Schanuel has been better lately. He hit .227 with a .608 OPS in April, and he\u2019s hitting .282 with a .714 OPS in May.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s that bad,\u201d Suzuki said. \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s at that point. The staff\u2019s been doing a good job of maintaining it. He actually said it was starting to feel better.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Angels\u2019 backup first baseman at the moment is Vaughn Grissom, who has mostly been playing third.<\/p>\n

O\u2019HOPPE SITS<\/h4>\n

Catcher Logan O\u2019Hoppe was out of the lineup for the second straight day, as the Angels continue to be conservative with him even though he insisted that he\u2019s fine.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Hoppe was tested for a concussion after a home-plate collision on Friday night. O\u2019Hoppe missed time last year with a concussion.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cLogan\u2019s doing better,\u201d Suzuki said on Sunday. \u201cToday he took BP and stuff. He said he\u2019s fine, so for me if you say it\u2019s fine, one more day. I know he had a little bit of a history, so as much as you want him in there, you\u2019ve just got to be kind of smart when it comes to the head stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

SUZUKI ON FANS<\/h4>\n

Large groups of fans have gathered in the upper reaches of the ballpark during each of the past six games to voice their frustration with team owner Arte Moreno. They chant \u201csell the team,\u201d and other more vulgar incantations.<\/p>\n

In addition, they\u2019ve shown boisterous support for the Angels players. At times, they\u2019ve done the \u201croll call\u201d that Yankee Stadium fans do, in which the fans chant the name of each player on the field until the player acknowledges them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see it,\u201d Suzuki said. \u201cWe recognize it. They have a right to their opinion. They cheer for the guys. They roll call them. I think it\u2019s pretty neat for them to have that kind of support.\u201d<\/p>\n

NOTES<\/h4>\n

Right-hander Alek Manoah is scheduled to make his first appearance for Triple-A Salt Lake sometime in the next week. The Angels optioned Manoah last Sunday and then they outrighted him a few days later. \u2026<\/p>\n

Shortstop Denzer Guzman continues to be on a hot streak at Triple-A. Guzman had multiple hits in four straight games, including three on Sunday. He\u2019s hit .412 with an OPS of 1.180 in May. For the season, he\u2019s hitting .328 with a .938 OPS. His minor league strikeout rate was 28% last year, and he\u2019s cut that to 19% this season. \u2026<\/p>\n

Chris Taylor is retiring after all. Taylor, a veteran utilityman playing at Triple-A, was initially placed on the voluntary retired list on Friday, but the Angels then reversed that on Saturday, placing him instead on the injured list. On Sunday, Taylor released a statement on Instagram saying that he is retiring.<\/p>\n
