Angels selected the contract of INF Denzer Guzman from Triple-A Salt Lake.

The Angels had been giving a roster spot to Scott Kingery, so with only a few weeks left in the season they thought better of it and will take a look to see what Guzman can do at the big league level. The 21-year-old infielder was hitting .247/.343/.426 with 17 long balls, 74 RBI and 14 swipes in 539 plate appearances between Double-A Rocket City and Triple-A Salt Lake. Guzman will start at shortstop and bat seventh for the Halos in his MLB debut on Saturday night.
