Bourjos has accepted a job to become an advance scout for the Rockies, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos has decided to transition to a scouting role after appearing in just 26 games with the Angels in 2019. Across parts of 10 big-league seasons (875 games), Bourjos compiled a career .237/.293/.376 slash line with 43 home runs and 68 stolen bases.

Bourjos was released by the Angels on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos was designated for assignment earlier in the week after slashing .091/.109/.114 with 15 strikeouts in 46 plate appearances. The veteran outfielder remains a plus defender, but continues to struggle against major-league pitching.

Bourjos was designated for assignment by the Angels on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos did very little with his opportunities at the plate this season, hitting .091/.109/.114. The 32-year-old still plays good defense, but his weak bat means he may be close to running out of big-league opportunities. Shohei Ohtani (elbow) will return from the injured list to take his place on the roster.

Bourjos is not in the lineup Friday against Texas, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos has lost playing to Brian Goodwin so far this season, who will man left field and bat eighth Friday night. Even with a lefty on the hill for the opposition, the Angels will elect to roll with the left-handed hitting Goodwin.

Bourjos is not in the lineup Thursday against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos is hitless through his first 11 at-bats, so he'll hit the bench Thursday to clear his head while Brian Goodwin picks up a start in left field in his place.

Bourjos is out of the lineup Monday against Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos will get the day off after going 0-for-8 in the first three games of the 2019 season. Brian Goodwin gets the call in left field and is batting eighth in Bourjos' place.

The Angels selected Bourjos' contract Tuesday and added him to their active roster.
EDGE Analysis
With Justin Upton (turf toe) headed to the injured list to begin the season, Bourjos will break camp with the Angels as the team's primary option in left field. The soon-to-be 32-year-old first broke into the big leagues with the Angels in 2010 and has a 22-steal season on his resume, but he's mainly a defensive specialist at this stage of his career. Expect him to bat near the bottom of the order before transitioning to a reserve role once Upton is healthy.

Bourjos went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs and two RBI in Saturday's spring win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos is now 5-for-14 with two doubles and two home runs through five spring training games. The veteran speedster is doing all he can make his way onto the Angels' Opening Day roster as a non-roster invitee.

Bourjos went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI in Tuesday's spring win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos has started spring training well as he is 5-for-8 with four RBI through three games. The veteran outfielder should be battling with Michael Hermosillo (groin) for a reserve outfield spot in spring training.

Bourjos has agreed to a minor-league deal with Los Angeles, Jeff Fletcher of the Southern California News Group reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bourjos spent the first four seasons of his professional career with the Angels, and he'll return with the hope of becoming their fourth outfielder. He should have plenty of opportunities to win a roster spot in spring training but will start the year at Triple-A Salt Lake if he fails to do so.
