Latest Update News Scott Podsednik: The three-time All-Star plans to make his second start for Los Angeles on Saturday against the American League West-leading Texas Rangers.

He was acquired Sunday in a trade that sent left-hander Joe Saunders and three minor leaguers to the Diamondbacks.

Haren was hit on his right arm by a liner off the bat of Boston’s Kevin Youkilis in the fifth inning of his Angels debut Monday night.

“Barring any setbacks, I should be good to go,” said Haren, who has made 190 consecutive starts since 2005.

“It’s still bruised and a little tight, but I don’t see it being a problem. I’m staying on top of it and getting treatment.

“I only threw 62 pitches Monday, so I feel real fresh, so I’ll have plenty in the tank.”
