Juan Rivera is a hitter of critical importance to the Angels. The 31-year-old Venezuelan is counted on to
provide protection and depth from the 6th position in the lineup. While he has provided that protection and depth
in the past, Rivera started to struggle down the stretch in 2009. Those struggles continued throughout the 2009
postseason; and it appears that Juan may be carrying those struggles into 2010.
