That's the second ball hit to center that sounded good off the bat then just died for an out.

With Sano hitting the way he his schanuel needs to go dude offers nothing right now. My 14 year old son can hit the ball further than schanuel can

Taylor Ward is a true American hero.

Mike Trout has a Taylor Ward poster hanging in his son's room.

I am just so happy to see Rendon hitting consistently lately. His bat being what it can be has been a major missing ingredient these last few seasons.

Send Schanuel down, have Thaiss play 1B and call Wallach up to be backup catcher? 

I want Schanuel to get his ABs but I can’t stand Thaiss behind the plate but I think last year showed he can be a serviceable bat (his bat started to slow down when he was being asked to also catch every single day). Wonder if taking catching duties away from him lets him focus more on hitting and we see those numbers increase. It’s clear the staff wants to work Ohoppe like a dog behind the plate so why not find a way to get Thaiss and his bat in there more often. Can’t be any worse than what Schanuel is showing rn as much as I love his patience at the plate 

[tdawg87]

Look all I'm saying is we're having a 3-way tie for comeback poty.

[Anthony Tendon]

Move Sano to first, and send Schanuel to SLC.

Anyhow I'm happy. Good game gents.

[Angels 1961]

Success story with both Thaiss and Ward. Moving Thaiss behind the plate seems to have worked out. Thaiss I think can carve out a career as a back up catcher. Ward drafted as a catcher has made himself a very good player in the field. Time is coming when halos need to send Schanuel down to work on his game. Angels have a good option in Sano anyone not seeing him as an option are not watching him play. Sano will only get better playing every day.

I’d venture to say it has a lot to do with Rendon hitting behind Trout until this season.
