Actually excited for Moniak. Hopefully he can build on what he showed previously.

Mildly surprised that they kept Weiss up, but I guess it doesn't really matter at this point.

Agree with AngelsFaninGA: definitely hoping Moniak continues to show some signs that he can actually contribute at the big league level next season.

Excited to see what Moniak can do the rest of the way. No more bunting though ffs.

Really hoping Aguilar doesn't get claimed and he can report back to Rocket City for the Trash Pandas playoff run.

Aside from the occasional day off to Trout or Ward, it seems like Moniak would be in line to take away playing time from Adell in LF for the rest of the season.

Adell had a chance to prove he deserved playing time during the month time-span Moniak was out, but he did not do that.

Damn didnt realize Moniak homered in both of his rehab games. Did the Angels fix him? Did the Phillies turn him off and then back on before shipping him out?

Welcome back Moniak!

Defense improved.

Offense mostly did not.
