So…. basically Davis f’ing Daniel just turned in the best start of the season up to now.

Makes sense.

So, Davis Daniel, not bad for a 40 overall ANGELS 26th “prospect”

“But it was the Tigers!” Yeah and Flaherty faced the Angels

Would like to see Flaherty come to the Halos next year

Idk, FA.

He was pretty bad in 22-23.

I’m sure I’m getting ahead of myself, but it seems like we’re playing with a bit more confidence and swag the last couple days.

Agreed, and he’s killing my fantasy team. Maybe I can get him going by dropping him. It’s an AL only team ,so I’m not a complete moron allowing him to stay on my roster.

FYI Daniel’s season high in pitches is 106 from his start 13 days ago against the Las Vegas Aviators

The Super Halo Bros also got him for their podcast and he’s one of their favorites.

I don’t want to jinx it, but Cy Daniels looks like a legit SP so far. I love the first pitch strikes.

This feels like a real progression. I hope he can sustain it when he takes over Anderson’s rotation slot.

Angel Stadium has actually been a hitters park ever since the wall was lowered.

I’m too GA to look it up but it feels like a fair park to me.

Statcast park factors.

Almost everything is at least 100 the last 6 years.
