Exits early Friday O'Hoppe was removed from Friday's game against the Rangers with an apparent injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact The 26-year-old backstop was slow to his feet after he collided with Josh Jung on a play at the plate in the seventh inning. O'Hoppe remained in the game for his at-bat in the bottom of the frame but was replaced behind the dish when the Angels took the field for the eighth. The fact that he was able to hit for himself suggests his removal could have been precautionary, but more information may come from the Angels after the game.

The 26-year-old backstop went 0-for-2 before his removal Friday and currently owns a .566 OPS through 95 plate appearances on the year.

Exits early Friday O'Hoppe was removed from Friday's game against the Dodgers with an apparent wrist injury, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Impact O'Hoppe returned from the injured list Friday after missing three weeks with a fractured left wrist. However, he appeared to be favoring his wrist during the fourth inning of Friday's game and was taken out of the game at the beginning of the sixth. It's unclear if the 26-year-old backstop will have to return to the injured list, but he could sit out at least a game or two to give his wrist extra time to heal. Sebastian Rivero would be in line to start any games O'Hoppe has to miss.
