His line today IP 4 H 5 R 5 (4 earned) K 6 BB 1

[rafibomb]

Brandon Marsh 2-2 with a double and 2 walks today. Slash line up to .273/.380/.352 on the season.

Madero threw 5 shutout innings.

Apart from the lack of power, Marsh is having a great year. .380 on base in that league is really really solid.

Man I feel that when Jo Adell arrives they're both going to go off.

just like that.  .502 ops for his first 15 games.   

for his last 20 games,  .328/.437/.466/.903.  All 8 of his extra base hits.

Marsh might have actually caught up to Adell for now.  Ceiling isn't as high, but arrival time is  probably equal.  Marsh is also probably a better defender at this point.

I'd love an OF of Trout in LF, Marsh in CF and Adell in RF in 2021.

Looks like Jo Adell might be heading to Mobile!

Adell in LF, Trout in CF, and Marsh in RF for me, at least for 2021.

Raider Uceta is the forgotten man among the Angels prospects.  Big time power, good swing.  Very young.  Almost no chance he ends up anywhere other than 1B.

MorStiward Aquino is back on the mound for #Angels extended spring training team after TJ last year. FB 93-96. CH mid 80s. Got swing-and-miss on 79-81 CB when he kept it down in the zone. Effective 3-inning outing.

I’ve never forgotten.  But I did wonder if he had washed out or something.  Sometimes you hear about these young guys and then don’t hear much for a while.  

Anyway, I’ve seen worse swings ! Hopefully he starts making some noise.

Jose Suarez tonight

4.1 IP    2 H    1 ER    3 BB    3 SO

89 pitches  51 strikes

 

For the season

15.0 IP    13 SO    1.80 ERA    1.13 WHIP

[Chuck]

Replace Harvey and Cahill with Suarez and Sandoval. I would rather the two take their lumps at the big league level than these two old farts that need to be put out to pasture already.

My guess is as soon as the team think they are mentally ready to take those lumps they will make that move.  I would not be surprised to see some shake ups sooner rather than later.  It might be Cozart first.

I watched Suarez pitch tonight and it was every bit of what this tweet implies.  There were at least 10 pitches that were called balls which were strikes or borderline at most.  He still managed to make opposing hitter look bad.  He's absolutely ready.  

Sandoval isn't.  He'd get killed by major league hitters right now.  The funny thing is that he goes through these brilliant stretches and then goes into throw and not pitch mode.  I feel like Canning did that last year yet this year he's so much more under control.  

That's one of the biggest differences between guys in the minors vs. majors.  Ignoring the batter.  Suarez seems like he can do that.
