Skaggs (shoulder) will start and throw two innings in Wednesday's game, the Los Angeles Times' Pedro Moura reports.

EDGE Analysis

His last scheduled start was scratched due to shoulder weakness, which is obviously pretty concerning, given his history of elbow and shoulder issues. However, the fact that he won't need to rehab the shoulder and will be able to slot back in as a starter is encouraging.

Skaggs isn't concerned about his recent shoulder troubles, as he hasn't stopped throwing and is slated for a bullpen session Friday or Saturday, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Testing had reported weakness in Skaggs' shoulder, though he recently said he felt fine. The left-hander made a comeback last season after delays following Tommy John surgery, and he was serviceable in 2016, despite late-season woes. The potential breakout candidate hasn't shown blazing velocity this spring but still has time to build that up. That timetable may run closer to Opening Day than most fantasy players would like, however, and the 25-year-old should remain a mere stash candidate in mixed leagues.

Skaggs (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Saturday and if all goes well he will rejoin the spring rotation next week, the Los Angeles Times' Mike DiGiovanna reports.

EDGE Analysis

His fastball fell from 89-92 mph at the start of his first spring start Saturday to 86-88 mph by the end of it, and his next start was skipped due to "a little bit of a deficit" in his previously injured left shoulder, according to manager Mike Scioscia. The Angels insist Skaggs will be fine, but it's hard not to discount him in drafts due to his track record of Tommy John surgery, which cost him all of 2015, and persistent shoulder problems last season that limited him to 10 starts.

Skaggs will have his next start pushed back after a strength test revealed some weakness in his shoulder, Mike DiGovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Skaggs says he feels perfectly fine, so this is likely a precautionary measure by the organization. The left-hander endured a rough spring debut Saturday, walking four of the six hitters he faced. Skaggs is expected to be a central part of the Angels' rotation this season, so the situation is worth monitoring as more information becomes available.

Skaggs couldn't escape the first inning of his Cactus League debut against the White Sox on Saturday. He walked four and allowed three runs (none earned) while striking out one in two-thirds of an inning.

EDGE Analysis

Skaggs looked a little rusty in his first game action of the spring, but we shouldn't jump to conclusions after one poor start. The young southpaw did pick a runner off of first, something he said he has been working on after allowing 100 percent of baserunners to steal successfully off of him last season. While he lowered his ERA to a career-low 4.17 in 2016, his walks jumped from 2.4 BB/9 in 2015 to 4.2 BB/9 last year. If he can stay healthy for a whole season, there is definitely upside in that arm, but he is too risky to rely on in most formats right out of the gates.

Skaggs will be one of the Angels' top four starter pitchers this season, MLB Network's Jose Mota reports.

EDGE Analysis

No surprises here as Skaggs is one of the few Angels' pitchers with high upside. The results haven't been there for the young lefty, but he has lowered his ERA slightly each year with the big club, getting it down to 4.17 last season after returning from Tommy John. Health will be the main concern for Skaggs in 2017 after failing to throw more than 50 innings in all but one of his four major league seasons.

Skaggs (forearm) will indeed take the ball for the Angels on Saturday against the Astros, the Orange County Register's Jeff Fletcher reports.

EDGE Analysis

He had been on track to start the penultimate game of the season, and that has now been confirmed. Skaggs is a talented southpaw that the Angels are counting on to be a key part of their long-term rotation, but arm injuries have stalled his development. At his best he boasts a 93-95 mph fastball, a plus curveball and a solid changeup, suggesting he could serve as a No. 3 starter if he can ever stay healthy over a full season. He has a 4.13 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 50:21 K:BB in 48 big league innings this year.

Skaggs (forearm) is listed as the probable starter for Saturday's game against the Astros, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was unclear whether Skaggs would return this season after being diagnosed with a mild pronator strain, but he appears ready to take the mound after throwing a successful bullpen session Tuesday. Skaggs will bring a 24 percent strikeout rate and a respectable 4.13 ERA into the matchup, but has not thrown an inning since Sept. 9, making him a risky stream option in the final days of yearly fantasy leagues.

Skaggs (forearm) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Pedro Moura of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

There had been doubt that Skaggs would return during the 2016 campaign. However, he's aiming to take the mound this weekend and pitch about five innings during the Angels' series against the Astros. Skaggs has pitched just nine games for Los Angeles this season, over which he's built a subpar 4.13 ERA and 1.44 WHIP.

Skaggs saw Dr. Neal ElAttrache on Thursday and got confirmation that his ulnar collateral ligament is OK, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

With that, Skaggs is pushing to pitch again this season, but of course the team will have the final say. Fletcher said it's his guess that the last-place Angels will not allow him to pitch in the majors, but will perhaps have Skaggs pitch in the instructional league instead before shutting him down with an eye toward 2017.
