Donnelly suffered a broken nose when struck by a flyball in batting practice March 9 and had surgery that day. One week later, he resumed workouts, but persistent nosebleeds in the ensuing days forced him to scratch a return to game action and created concern for team doctors. Donnelly was admitted Friday to Scottsdale Memorial Hospital; On Saturday, he had the blood vessels Blood vessels Tubular channels for blood transport, of which there are three principal types: arteries, capillaries, and veins.

There is no immediate timetable for his return to baseball-related activities.

The Kennedy High of Granada Hill product struck out, walked and fouled out to third in three at-bats and played four innings in center field, his anticipated position this season. The workout hardly was sufficient to determine if Anderson's right-shoulder tendinitis will enable him to be ready for opening day. But Scioscia expects him to play today, with an off day Monday, and Anderson said ``things have gotten a lot better.'' ``I'm just looking forward to (today),'' Anderson said. ``(Opening day) will take care of itself when we get there.'' Anderson dismissed the notion of playing in minor-league games to make up for lost time, saying there's nothing productive about getting 10 at-bats a day. Scioscia agreed, saying Anderson should be able to get 25 to 30 at-bats in Cactus League games before the Angels break camp. --Lackey lacks location: Five days after throwing five shutout innings against San Diego, John Lackey was ripped for eight hits, including four home runs, in three innings by the Giants. J.T. Snow, Barry Bonds, Pedro Feliz and Michael Tucker all homered against Lackey, who needed just 46 pitches to complete five innings Monday. --Disney CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
