8 Justin Upton LF

Upton went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run to help the Angels to a 4-3 victory over the Mariners on Sunday.

The slugger is red-hot at the moment, as this makes four homers in five games to bring his total on the season up to 30. He's having an excellent age-31 season for the Angels, as this performance brought his slash line up to .263/.346/.478 through 502 at-bats.

Upton went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs Saturday against the Mariners.

Upton took Erasmo Ramirez deep in the fourth inning and followed that up with another shot in the ninth against Edwin Diaz. The multi-homer game brought his season total to 29, and all but ensures that he will reach the 30 home run plateau for the third consecutive season.

Upton (concussion) played catch Wednesday and hopes to return to the lineup Friday against the White Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Upton sustained the concussion after an outfield collision last Saturday. The fact that the club didn't place him on the 7-day concussion DL was a positive sign that he wouldn't be held out too long. Fantasy owners should prepare for a potential return this weekend against the White Sox.

Upton left Saturday's game with a mild concussion, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Mild or not, it's still something to be concerned about. J-Up left after avoiding a collision with shortstop Andrelton Simmons on a defensive play. Expect the Halos to be careful with their big-name bat: Upton might wind up on the 7-day concussion disabled list soon if his condition doesn't improve. His fantasy shareholders should prepare to add a replacement Sunday heading into this week's action.

Upton (undisclosed) left Saturday's game after nearly colliding with teammate Andrelton Simmons on a defensive play in the bottom of the fifth inning, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

While not confirmed to be related to the nearly painful play in the field, it's seemingly related. Upton came charging in from left field on an in-between popup. Simmons ultimately caught the ball, but Upton tried to slide out of the way to avoid the shortstop and landed awkwardly. No official designation has been revealed, but the team should reveal more information in the near future. Kaleb Cowart replaced J-Up in left field.
