I’m looking for Griffin Canning to have a breakout year this season.  Just needs to stay healthy.

Same here. I'm also hoping Silseth gets a shot at a rotation spot as well. Would love to see what he can do over the course of a full season.

I have canning penciled in as our #2 starter. Hopefully he can continue where he left off  in the second half. Reducing the long ball will be key.

Not sure I'd say that publicly. I know he meant to praise Canning but he's kind of throwing the rest of the older staff under the bus.

That should be the least of their worries.

I hope it rubs off on the other starters. 

Anderson, Sandoval and Detmers need to pay attention.

Silseth already has that bulldog in him. Wash will see if he hasn’t already.

GO ANGELS!!!

Practice. Practice. Practice. Maybe you can win a few games.

[Lhalo]

Nice way to start the game. 

[jsnpritchett]

Adrianza with a SHOT to RF on the first pitch.  Lol.  He's not exactly known for his power.

[daygloman]

He looked like a slugger the way he clubbed that dinger.

They need to get on the bus instead of being roadkill. 

As for the older pitchers, outside of Anderson, Canning is the oldest starter on the staff.

[Angels 1961]

I know it is ST games but I belief that Angels will surprise people this year. 

[Kendo36]

Rendon still puts up a nice AB.

Maybe that is the kick in the Butt the "older" staff needs.

Ugh!
