Guzman had started in each of the Angels' last five contests, but he'll get a break Wednesday while Vaughn Grissom covers the hot corner.

Launches fifth homer
Guzman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Friday's 6-2 loss to the Brewers.
Analyse
It was a quiet day for the Angels' offense overall, with the only scoring coming via Guzman's two-run shot during the fifth inning. This was the fifth homer of the season for the 22-year-old, who has taken over as the primary third baseman with six starts in the past seven games. He's yet to take advantage of the regular playing time and has a .519 OPS in 10 contests since the All-Star break.
