Angels News
In a week that saw the Angels tumble to a dismal 1-6 record, the team managed to avoid further catastrophe after Mike Trout's X-rays came back negative following a hit-by-pitch incident in yesterday's loss to the Pirates. While Trout escaped injury, the Angels must reckon with an overall lackluster performance, highlighted by a -6 run differential over the last week. Adding to the turmoil, Yusei Kikuchi's rare bright spot,a six-inning scoreless outing,was overshadowed by the team's struggle for consistency. As Arte Moreno's sale shifts the organization's future, the minor league re-signing of Shaun Anderson implies a search for stability amid chaos. Meanwhile, promising third-round pick Gavin Grahovac is making headlines for his dominance in the minors, but fans are left wondering when the big league team will show signs of life.
