The Los Angeles Angels activated infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor from the injured list Monday after more than a month away because of a fractured left hand.

Second baseman Christian Moore was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake, while the Angels purchased the contracts of infielder Scott Kingery and left-hander Mitch Farris from Salt Lake.

Outfielder Taylor Ward is not expected to go on the IL after he crashed into the wall at Houston on Sunday and opened a cut over his eye that required 20 stitches. Ward was not in the lineup Monday against the Astros but expects to play in the coming days after being cleared of a concussion.

Outfielder Gustavo Campero (ankle) and right-hander Carson Fulmer (elbow) were moved to the 60-day injured list to open up 40-man roster spots for Kingery and Farris.

Taylor, 35, has spent two stints on the IL because of a hand fracture since he was signed by the Angels as a free agent on May 26 following 10 seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Taylor was 7-for-37 (.189) over his first 15 games with the Angels. In 12 major league seasons with the Seattle Mariners (2014-16), Dodgers (2016-25) and Angels, he is a career .249 hitter with 109 home runs and 437 RBIs in 1,108 games.

Moore, 22, made his major league debut June 13 and was batting .195 with four home runs and 12 RBIs in 39 games.

Kingery, 31, was batting .160 over 14 games with the Angels earlier this season, while Farris, 24, is being called up to the major leagues for the first time after going 3-8 with a 4.27 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 23 appearances (22 starts) at Double-A Rocket City.
