   Can Schanuel be competent in 2024? 1 2

   Yes we all know he was just drafted, only 22, and only 10 games in. He had the nice little story of the on base streak going, but that really did some heavy lifting to hide his overall performance. Currently 2 for 31, good for a slash of .065/.261/.161 for an OPS that is .003 higher than Anthony Rendon's. He's getting on base considering via the walks, but what should we be expecting from him? Will sending him down ruin his confidence too much, potentially hurting his long term development and future?

   OC Register: Angels’ Griffin Canning looks to use extra rest to turn around slow start

   BOSTON — Griffin Canning will take the mound on Saturday with seven days of rest since his previous outing, which he hopes will allow him to get back to the way he pitched for most of last season. The Angels right-hander threw two bullpen sessions between starts instead of one. “I’m a feel pitcher so if I feel like something’s off, maybe it feels bigger than it needs to be, but I feel like I’m getting my rhythm,” Canning said. Canning has allowed nine earned runs in 9⅔ innings in his first two starts. Also, his fastball velocity has averaged 92.7 mph. He averaged 94.7 mph last season, including 94.2 last April. “My arm feels good,” Canning said. “My body feels good. M…

   AngelsWin Today: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: 12 Games In

   12 games have come and gone, and, for lack of a better word, the results have left lots of room for conversation. The Angels are 6-6 - frankly, a result better than I expected, since I found our first month or so very difficult, schedule wise. Despite this, I am not pleased with the result, because based on the events of said 12 games, we could easily be 8-4 or even 9-3. That being said, we're still 2nd in the division and only a game back of the Rangers. With 150 games ahead, there's been a lot of good, a lot of bad, and some downright ugly play during the season thus far. Let's break down what fits where (PSA: These will 100% be overreactions to small sample siz…

   OC Register: Angels’ Chase Silseth relieved after MRI shows only elbow inflammation

   April 10 by AngelsWin.com

   • 6 replies
   • 217 views

   ANAHEIM — Considering the spate of major elbow injuries around baseball, Angels right-hander Chase Silseth couldn’t help but be alarmed with the discomfort he felt coming out of his start on Sunday. Fortunately, an MRI showed only inflammation and no structural damage, and Silseth hopes to be back in three weeks. “My heartbeat was racing, but seeing it was clean, it’s good,” he said Wednesday. Silseth pitched five innings in a 12-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox, giving up home runs on each of his three hits allowed, but more troubling was how he felt trying to bend his elbow during the outing. When it carried over to his postgame cool down routine, feeling what he descri…

    OC Register: Angels’ José Soriano can’t escape early hole in 1st career start

    April 10 by AngelsWin.com

    • 2 replies
    • 158 views

    ANAHEIM — José Soriano gave up four runs in his first career start, and the Angels dropped their second straight game to the Tampa Bay Rays, 4-2, on Wednesday afternoon. Soriano, a 25-year-old from the Dominican Republic, never had a chance to settle in. He gave up three straight singles up the middle to start the game, taking Randy Arozarena’s comeback hit off of his ankle. Soriano then threw a wild pitch that allowed two runs to score when catcher Matt Thaiss couldn’t find the ball in a timely manner. A sacrifice fly followed to put the Angels in a 3-0 hole. José Caballero cracked a solo homer to left field off Soriano to start the second inning and make it a 4-0 def…

    OC Register: Angels lose to Rays on sloppy night for Patrick Sandoval

    April 10 by AngelsWin.com

    • 16 replies
    • 272 views

    ANAHEIM — Patrick Sandoval had another off night, with the only solace being that he made it through five innings with the Angels still having a chance to win the game. They didn’t. Sandoval, the Angels’ Opening Day starter, has lost two of his three starts this season, including allowing four runs in the Angels’ 6-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night. It was a disappointing night for the Angels after an encouraging start, with Mike Trout putting them on top with a two-run homer in the first inning. It was Trout’s sixth homer in the first 11 games of the season, setting an Angels record. Trout’s homer was a two-run shot, the first of his homers that wasn’t a …

    OC Register: Angels’ Anthony Rendon warms up after cold start

    April 10 by AngelsWin.com

    • 0 replies
    • 73 views

    ANAHEIM — A day after Anthony Rendon doubled his season hit total in one game, he said there was no adjustment that flipped a switch from cold to hot. “I don’t really know,” the Angels’ third baseman said on Tuesday. “Nothing’s really changed. Just trying to stay adamant about my work. Continue talking with the hitting coaches and just keep working every day. They’re finally just falling.” Rendon began the season in an 0-for-21 slump. Since then, he has six hits in 16 at-bats, including three hits on Monday night. Manager Ron Washington said Rendon was showing signs even when he was hitless that he was on the right track. “Rendon is a hands hitter,” Washington said. “…

    OC Register: Angels’ Anthony Rendon ‘loves’ the opportunity to hit leadoff 1 2 3 4 8

    March 30 by AngelsWin.com

    • 187 replies
    • 4.7k views

    BALTIMORE — Anthony Rendon has come to grips with manager Ron Washington giving him new role as the Angels’ leadoff hitter. “I love it,” the Angels third baseman said before the second game of the season, on Saturday. “I’m up for anything. I trust Wash. I trust this whole staff and anything that puts us in the best position to win. I’m all for it. I think we all are on the same page, all of our guys up and down the order.” Rendon, 33, had not hit leadoff in a big-league game since 2015. For most of his career, he’s been a middle-of-the-order run producer. With the current Angels lineup, though, Washington is using Rendon at the top because of his ability to see a lot of…

    Just my observations from last nights game. Fly overs are always great. National anthem with the giant flag is always emotional. The crowd last night was LOUD, like playoff atmosphere loud. The fans cheered and boo’d when it felt appropriate. Lots of times when the stadium is full it feels like half the crowd doesn’t know what is going on in the game, last night felt like everyone was into it. Rendon was boo’d, Ohtani on the video board was boo’d (which surprised me) Arte on the video board was boo’d, when they announced Joey Cora he was boo’d. The cheers came when guys got hits or worked walks, but the volume was just different than it h…

    OC Register: Tyler Anderson leads Angels past Rays with 2nd straight scoreless outing

    ANAHEIM — The Angels have plenty of players looking to rebound from disappointing seasons in 2023, and none of them so far has been more successful than Tyler Anderson. The Angels left-hander pitched seven scoreless innings in a 7-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night. Anderson hasn’t allowed a run in 14 innings this season. He became the first Angels pitcher since Hector Santiago in 2016 to pitch at least seven scoreless innings in two consecutive games. The Angels have never had a pitcher do it in his first two starts of the season. It’s been an eye-opening start for a pitcher who posted a 5.43 ERA in 2023, the first season after the Angels signed him to …

    ANAHEIM — Chase Silseth was in that awkward waiting phase on Monday, after getting an MRI exam but before learning what it showed. “Anytime there’s something with the elbow, I have concern,” the Angels right-hander said. “Anytime any injury happens, you want to be ahead of it.” The Angels placed Silseth on the injured list on Monday, a day after he gave up three runs in five innings in a 12-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox. Silseth was diagnosed with right elbow inflammation pending the result of the MRI exam. Silseth’s velocity dropped from around 95 mph in the first inning to 92 mph by the fifth inning on Sunday, but he said after the game that he didn’t think anything o…

    ANAHEIM — If history is any indication, Jo Adell is going to get an opportunity to play as injuries or extended struggles of other players clear the way. For now, though, he’s still waiting. The Angels outfielder was on the bench again Sunday. He’s started just two of the first nine games. “I’ve got some pretty good little ball players and I can only get nine on the field,” manager Ron Washington said. “Everyone that’s here is going to get a chance to play. We are at the 7th of April and we started the 28th of March. There’s still a lot of baseball to go. We’ll find places to get Jo in there.” Although Washington said he’s not necessarily saving Adell to face lefties,…
