Jered Weaver has been scratched from his start Friday against the Mariners due to forearm tightness.
Matt Shoemaker will start in his place. Weaver also had some forearm problems earlier this year and it would come as no surprise to hear the Angels are shutting him down. The 30-year-old right-hander has posted a 3.36 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 115/36 K/BB ratio in 147 1/3 frames.

Jered Weaver surrendered four runs on eight hits over six innings in Monday's loss to the Indians.
He whiffed five and walked two. At the very least, this was progress after Weaver was spanked for nine runs in five innings against the Yankees on Wednesday. Weaver wears an ugly 6.31 ERA in four August starts, but opportunity knocks on Sunday with a tasty matchup in Seattle against Aaron Harang.
