Morning Angels fans, have some links
Angels News
Angels lost again. Poor hitting is the main cause, but so is the bullpen. The vets in the back of it are especially bad, which have cost the team quite a few games thus far.
Maybe we are being to negative. I mean, at least Rendon is gone… wait, why is his merch being SPONSORED BY MLB?!
While Vlad Jr was never going to sign with the Angels (he loves Canada too much) he did discuss what it was like to be in Anaheim as a kid. Can’t be mad at that face.
Grayson Rodriguez is now facing live batters. The guy the Angels traded Taylor Ward for is likely not going to be in the rotation any time soon, but this was a ‘2027’ and future move anyway.

At least we aren’t Mets fans. Imagine current Angels but with, like, expectations, twice the money spent, and an owner who is ACTUALLY trying to win but failing so miserably that the team is resorting to ritualism. Did not work, Mets lose 12th straight.
As a sign of brotherly love, the Phillies lost their 7th straight to be right next to the Mets in the NL East standings. At the bottom.
Blue Jays started Patrick Corbin last night, the former Angels draft pick turned trade bait turned Nats WS champ has been so bad the last 7 years that he ranks first in pretty much every major NEGATIVE category for SP. And the Angels still did not hit well against him.
It is eerie how similar Kershaw and Pedro Martinez’ careers were. After Verlander and Scherzer retire, I do not know if we will see another SP like that again.
Remember when the Angels beat the Rockies 25-1 in 2023? Fox does. And it is the largest margin of victory of any game in the last deace.
