Stat Fact

With Tim Salmon , 28, in rightfield; Jim Edmonds , 26, in centerfield; and Garret Anderson , 24, in leftfield, the Angels have the youngest starting outfield in baseball. Last season the only other major league club with a regular outfield with all players under the age of 30 (minimum: 100 starts per player) was the Cubs, who started Luis Gonzalez (28, now playing for the Astros ), Brian McRae (28) and Sammy Sosa (27).
