Andrew Vaughn - Carted off fieldVaughn was taken off the field on a cart after suffering an apparent injury in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Dodgers, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
ImpactVaughn started Sunday's matchup in right field but went down after making a diving catch in the bottom of the fourth inning. While the exact nature and severity of Vaughn's injury aren't yet known, it's discouraging that he was unable to walk off the field under his own power. If the 23-year-old is unavailable to begin the regular season, Gavin Sheets and Adam Engel are candidates to see additional playing time.

Shohei Ohtani - Set for leadoff roleOhtani will serve as the Angels' leadoff hitter to begin the regular season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
ImpactOhtani has hit from the leadoff spot for the majority of spring training, and he's delivered a .455 on-base percentage across 11 plate appearances. He spent the majority of the 2021 season hitting either second or third, so his shift up the order will not be drastic. However, it will give him the opportunity to maximize volume, of particular importance if he receives days off when he takes the mound.
