Angels' Jett Bandy: Not in lineup Saturday

Bandy is out of the lineup for Saturday's tilt with Houston, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

Bandy will get his first maintenance day in six games as recent call-up Carlos Perez makes the start behind the dish and bats eighth. Bandy has been a solid producer since the start of the second half, collecting five hits - including a homer - three runs and three RBI in 19 at-bats.
