Mike Maddux might not have them fixed quite yet.

Angels fans singing “you say you wanna revolution”, but Maddux singing “when I’m 64”.
Lotta miracles expected from that greybeard.

Kyreen contributes. The Angels are actually coming back.

Inherit the wind. (Maybe the actual angels are blowing hard today – I think that would have been a routine out on a typical day.)

Somehow I don’t think Hartlieb is going to nab that final spot in the A’s bullpen. 32 yo AAA guy – one of almost a dozen competing for it.

Raudi, Rada and Guzman all showing up here middle of spring.
Love to see it, since they’re really the only bats of note in the upper minors.

Yup. We don’t have much, but what we have, plus Paris and Moore in AAAA, look OK thus far.

Guzman tags Arnold on a sweeper in – first run surrendered by Jamie this spring.
Command less in evidence in inning two for Arnold. Lots of movement, appears to be a little unsettled after the Guzman solo shot.
Edit: Solid recovery though. Sweeper worked against Kyren, inducing the whiff.

Another killer appearance from Arnold this spring. Keep in mind, this guy didn’t pitch a single pro inning in the MiLB last year.

Wally Urena in and immediately starts rocketing 100 mph sinkers 😮💨

Urena and Klassen were the two AA guys last season I thought the Angels should continue the starter experiment with, given age and stuff. But both would be assets in the Angels pen right now, and inconsistency of command in longer stretches tends to expose both frequently. Can see that with Urena today, like Klassen this week. First inning they drop the hammer, and then get shaky past pitch 20.

To your point, Urena just completely lost control around 25 pitches. Coupled with having trouble getting chases the reliever risk with him is glaring.

Annnnddd, Urena gets 2 quick outs, starts walking batters, then gives up 3 runs, gets yanked.

The story of the farm right now – so much heat, so many arms that can work 97-101, so little length and command. Beyond Bremner and Dana, the upper minors are all relief profiles the Angels are trying to wishcast into six-inning guys.
More starter profiles in the lower minors, but even there, some of the ’25 prep draftees were clearly selected largely on FB characteristics.

I’ll give Manoah a DFA target of July. He is simply a placeholder until Dana is ready to take over 5th starter duties.

OK. They got him out of there.

Just in time for Aneurys Zabala to cough up a grand slam followed by a solo homer. Bring back Manoah.
Make that two solo homers.
