Angels News
The Angels managed to muscle their way to a 9-6 victory over the Rangers, giving fans a glimmer of hope amid a dismal 2-5 stretch that’s seen them get outscored by a shocking 28 runs over the last week. Mike Trout's contribution was vital, as he’s still trying to shake off a sluggish season with a .239 average, but victories against aces like Nathan Eovaldi are encouraging signs, even if they come amidst desperate roster moves,like signing Taijuan Walker, a former Phillies cast-off, to a minor league deal. The Angels are clearly scrambling for answers with their 18-34 record, and demoting Josh Lowe shows they recognize issues but can't quite capitalize on opportunities. With another game against Texas on the horizon, the team needs to ride this momentum and prove that last night's win was more than just a momentary spark.
