ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The first time Mike Trout played against his idol, he was a raw 19-year-old just a few weeks removed from his Los Angeles Angels debut. He couldn't quite believe he was standing on a major league field talking to Derek Jeter.

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Scott Kazmir, who has spent the last month at the team's extended spring-training camp in search of a consistent delivery and release point, may rejoin the Angels within the next month, but it might not be as a starting pitcher.

Manager Mike Scioscia said the team could bring the left-hander back as a long reliever, even though Kazmir has made only one relief appearance in his 6 1/2 seasons in the major leagues.

"No doubt, we need starting pitching depth, and we're looking at him as a starter," Scioscia said. "But I wouldn't rule out anything."

Kazmir's future with the Angels could hinge on how 21-year-old right-hander Tyler Chatwood, who has gone 2-2 with a 4.50 earned-run average in eight games as the fifth starter, pitches over the next few weeks.
