Valbuena started at third and batted cleanup Monday, going 0-for-4 in a win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Valbuena has been filling in for the injured Yunel Escobar (hamstring) at the hot corner, which could eventually lead to added third base eligibility if he didn't already possess it. While he certainly can be a drain on batting average, the 31-year-old can provide some deep-league value while he bats in the heart of the Angels' lineup.
