Jo Adell Has Big Day Thursday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell went 3-for-4 with a walk, three runs, three RBI, and was a triple shy of the cycle with Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Dylan Bundy Struggles In Spot Start

Los Angeles right-hander Dylan Bundy (1-8) didn't get the results he wanted in Thursday's 4-0 defeat to the Oakland Athletics. He went 4.1 innings, giving up three runs, four walks, and he struck out two. This was Bundy's first start since moving to the bullpen after disappointing results as a starter, but he made a […]

David Fletcher Held In Check Thursday

Los Angeles Angels second baseman David Fletcher went hitless in four at-bats during Thursday's 4-0 loss against the Oakland Athletics. Fletcher wasn't alone though, as the team could only muster three hits, none for extra bases. Fletcher is now 4-for-25 in his last six games.

Mike Trout Receives Encouraging MRI Results

Los Angeles outfielder Mike Trout (calf) underwent an MRI on Thursday and received encouraging results. He still isn't running and remains without a timetable for a return.

K-BB% Starting Pitcher Risers and Fallers (July)

Recently I've been on a K-BB% bender. I first looked at potential 2nd half breakouts by examining June K-BB% and came away feeling good about Eduardo Rodriguez, Patrick Sandoval, and Adam Wainwright. Then I looked at some relievers who might be worth stashing based on June's K-BB%, so it's only fitting that I go back […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/29/21): MLB DFS Lineups

We have a 5-game main slate on tap tonight, and it's a messy one. There are some potential weather concerns with Toronto/Boston looking really nasty. The pitching is not that great, especially not knowing if Peralta is a full go or not. We may get a return of Dylan Bundy if Alex Cobb continues to […]

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Jared Walsh (side) has been placed on the 10-day injured list retroactive to July 27, Megan Garcia of MLB.com reported.

Jose Suarez Tagged With Loss Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels starter Jose Suarez (4-4) picked up his fourth loss of the season during Tuesday night's blowout loss to the Colorado Rockies.

Dylan Bundy Could Start This Week

Los Angeles right-hander Dylan Bundy has been considered to make a start this week, Angels manager Joe Maddon said. Dylan Bundy was moved to the bullpen late last month after struggling to find consistency as a starter. The move hasn't paid off for him, as he's thrown five innings while giving up four runs as […]

Alex Cobb May Make Next Start

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Alex Cobb (finger) could make his next start, which is set for Thursday, according to Angels manager Joe Maddon. Cobb was removed from his start on July 23 with a blister on his finger but was considered day-to-day. They still aren't sure about the severity of the blister. He's been […]

He is considered day-to-day […]

Phil Gosselin Hitting Third Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Phil Gosselin will start and hit third Tuesday night against the Rockies. Gosselin is by no means a household name and is slashing .229/.296/.292 this season but finds himself in the three-hole thanks to his production against left-handed pitching. With the Rockies trotting out left-handed starter Austin Gomber on Tuesday, […]
