Not in Saturday's lineup
O'Hoppe (head) is not in the Angels' starting lineup against the Red Sox on Saturday.
Analyse
O'Hoppe sustained a head injury during Friday's loss to Boston, when he took a foul tip to the mask in the third inning, though it looks like he'll avoid a stint on the 7-day concussion list, per Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Tyler Heineman will serve as the Angels' catcher and bat fifth while forming a battery with southpaw Sam Aldegheri.

Exits early Friday
O'Hoppe was removed from Friday's game against Boston with a head injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Analyse
O'Hoppe took a foul tip off his mask during the third inning of Friday's contest and was immediately replaced behind the plate. It remains unknown whether the 26-year-old suffered a concussion as a result of the incident, though he has had problems with concussions in the past. Tyler Heineman entered the game as O'Hoppe's replacement and would presumably start most of the games the latter has to miss.
