Peter Bourjos had a pair of hits, including his second spring home run, in a losing effort against the Mariners on Friday afternoon.

Bourjos finished the contest 2-for-3. He enters the season as the Angels everyday starter in center field, and has come out of the gate strong this spring, hitting .364 (12-for-33) with two homers, nine RBI and a steal through 12 games. He possesses a dynamic combination of power and speed that makes him a very attractive target in the later rounds of fantasy drafts.

Peter Bourjos launched his first Cactus League homer and added a single in Wednesday's loss to the Padres.

The two-run shot came off of left-hander Clayton Richard. Bourjos is now batting .333 with a homer, three triples and eight RBI this spring. He's only a career .247/.301/.402 hitter but offers an intriguing mix of power and speed that makes him a late-round option in fantasy leagues.

Peter Bourjos knocked in three runs with a bases-loaded triple in Friday's 16-8 win over the Dodgers.

It was part of a seven-run third inning for the Angels. After spending last season as a reserve outfielder, Bourjos is expected to serve as the club's starting center fielder in 2013. His batting average is unlikely to be a strength, but his power-speed combo should prove useful in deeper mixed fantasy leagues.

Peter Bourjos will not undergo surgery on his right hip this offseason.

Bourjos said during spring training that he would likely need surgery after the season, but that's no longer the case. In fact, the 25-year-old is now considering playing winter ball in the Dominican Republic. Bourjos was limited to just 195 plate appearances this season and could be a popular trade target this winter.

Peter Bourjos has been dealing with "intestinal problems" lately, according to Angels manager Mike Sciosica.

Bourjos pinch-ran and scored a run Thursday, but he's had just one plate appearance since being activated from the disabled list earlier this month. It appears that he might be limited to being a pinch-runner and defensive replacement down the stretch.
