S Anderson’s achilles heel is definitely the long ball.

Come on Wash. Time to move it on up and bring that Yeferson kid in.

Im calling it early but barring any further injuries, it looks like TA and Scott Kingery will get the 2 open positional spots on the OD 26 man roster . TA should also get the starting nod at Short until Neto returns. I also see Rengifo starting at second base unless he cant get ready after his long illness. Despite Kyren Paris’ eye opening spring I think the Angels would prefer that he get alot AB’s at AAA then sit on the bench iat the Major League level Now I could be wrong as Kingery has an option left but the way they are moving him around the diamond tells me he’ll get the super utility role in Anaheim.

TA is not on the 40 man roster but I dont believe anyone will need to be jettisoned as the Angels in all likelihood will just have to move Sam Bustman to the 60 day IL to open up a spot.

You must have Newman starting at SS. He will make the club and well as Kingery.

I’m not sure about TA, and I won’t write off JD (need back up corner IF)

JD hasn’t gotten many opportunities this spring and has not done much with them when he has.he has hit 6 games so far . Right now he’s 1 for 11 with 7 strikeouts . Not a great start for him if you are battling for a bench spot out of ST

If the Angel coaches really think TA;s bat is back I think he’d start over Newman even tough I really liked the Newman signing.

Bachman’s hurt? Must have forgot. I also forgot Anderson exists, but there he was pitching….

I never could never understand that Minasian pick, a guy with a relief pitcher and injury profile as an early first rounder.

I’m looking now at the 2020 draft where we drafted Detmers at #10. Crochet was pick #11 but outside of Crochet….well, Torkelson was #1. He’s got a career -0.3 WAR, a 94 OPS+. It’s risky stuff.

Love the approach by C Mo there. Not pretty ,but was trying to stay back and punch it to RF.

I see that nickname and think of how Trebek pronounced the word Sorry.
