Can they actually take a series from Tejas for a change????

Since taking 3 of 4 early, just 3-9 against a bad Rangers team!

They will take the series, most likely.  But don’t forget it’s important that the players have fun plus it’s really time they started focusing on their golf games.  As usual.

Three more games, and then Rendon activated for the Oakland series

well, that’s no surprise since the Angels are also a bad team…

Go Halos!

Adell with a home run, 1-0 Angels!

When a HR hitter trot heads to home plate it seems like the lights dim a little.

That’s Artie’s way of saving on his electric bill

Some interesting stats coming into this games;

1. Ward at 3.8 war, close to 4. basically he's played like an All-star

2. Rengifol 2 war solid for a regular stater

3. Detmers, 2 war also solid for a starter. 

 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Ward is a beast, if only he hadn't run into the wall.

The Angels are fifth in the league in starting pitching era. Wow. I never would have guessed that at the beginning of the year. I also would have expected them to be in the playoffs if you told me that in the beginning of the year.

Reid Detmers’ 2022 season is officially in the books. There is just so much to like and dream on. I forget this is still his rookie season too.
 

Overall: 

129.0 IP  3.77 ERA  1.21 WHIP  122 SO

Just brings me right back to the off season when I was saying the team needed a legit catcher, an outfielder and a real short stop.

Meanwhile we had guys like Joe Maddon commenting that teams with post season aspirations dont pencil guys like Reed Detmers into their starting rotations.

Ward played like a superstar when he was healthy, and that emergence is pretty huge.  I like Rengifo leading off too, and I'd like to see this top 4 (Rengifo, Trout, Ohtani, Ward) start off next season too.  A healthy Rendon, as well as attempting to acquire a LF and a 1B, will greatly help lengthen this lineup.

Nice! 

Go Halos!

[rafibomb]

Nice line drive the other way by O’Hoppe followed by a bunt single by Soto. Rocket City…

There's a lot of good going on right now, but Fletcher is back in another slump.  He's now 10 for his last 59, with only 1 BB over that time frame.  Eight singles, two doubles.  Blech.  Before this stretch, he hit really well for the first 26 games after he came back from his injury: .340/.377/.450.  He is one streaky mf'er.
