last night's win

The positives and negatives are canceling out. Won by 5 last night and the score reflects it. Pulling the other way, going 2-5 lately. That drags everything down.

Angels News

The Angels' brutal 54-90 season continues to drag as they lost 5-2 to the Boston Red Sox, extending their disappointing record to just 2-5 over the last week. While it's easy to dwell on the struggles, there is a flicker of hope in the form of Reid Detmers, who has impressively lowered his second-half ERA to 1.37 after a brilliant six-inning, nine-strikeout performance in a recent victory. Meanwhile, Shohei Ohtani's absence from the lineup due to lingering injuries raises concerns about his future with the team as the season winds down. On a positive note, rookie Walbert Ureña is emerging as a valuable piece for the Angels' future, boasting a solid 2.74 ERA. As the Angels grapple with their past failures, a new ownership era may offer a fresh outlook, but the current season remains a tough pill to swallow.
