Jo Adell Has Three Hits At Triple-A
Los Angeles Angels outfield prospect Jo Adell went 3-for-5 with two singles and a double on Thursday night. He also drove in two runs. Adell has shown massive power in the minors with 12 homers in just 24 games but the significant swing-and-miss to his game has threatened to negate the value of his pop. […]
Angels Unsure If Shohei Ohtani Will Hit Friday
The Los Angeles Angels are unsure if starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani will pick up a bat on Friday when he gets the start on the mound against the Mariners, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com.

Shohei Ohtani To Pitch Friday
Los Angeles Angels pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is scheduled to take the mound Friday against the Mariners. Ohtani last pitched on May 28, allowing three runs through six innings pitched.

Alex Cobb To Pitch Saturday
Los Angeles Angels starter Alex Cobb will take the mound Saturday against the Mariners.

The veteran has now allowed only one run over […]

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon will try and build off a fantastic performance on Tuesday when the team takes on the Mariners on Thursday.

Mike Trout No Longer Wearing A Boot
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (calf) is moving in the right direction.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton (leg) was removed from Tuesday's game after suffering a leg injury. Upton collided with his teammate Kean Wong while chasing down a pop-up in the fourth inning.

Angels Activate Max Stassi
The Los Angeles Angels activated catcher Max Stassi (concussion) from the injured list on Tuesday and optioned left-handed pitcher Jose Quijada to the minor leagues in a corresponding move. The Angels also announced that catcher Drew Butera cleared waivers and will return to Triple-A. Before the concussion, Stassi was slashing .241/.313/.345 with a home run […]
Jose Quintana Placed On Injured List
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Jose Quintana (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The southpaw left Sunday's matchup against the Athletics because of discomfort in his throwing shoulder, so the team will play it safe by keeping him out for a bit. The veteran hasn't played well this season, sporting a 7.22 ERA […]
Taylor Ward Slugging .476 In The Last Seven Games
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Taylor Ward is slashing .286/.375/.476 over his last seven games heading into the team's matchup against the Giants on Tuesday.

Justin Upton Struggling Away From Angel Stadium
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton may continue to see at-bats from the leadoff spot heading into the team's matchup with the Giants on Tuesday. The veteran slugger has been surprisingly solid from the top-spot, slashing .300/.313/.533 through 30 at-bats. The experiment this past week has paid off but fantasy teams may need to pause […]
Juan Lagares Posting .633 OPS
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Juan Lagares will continue to see consistent playing time with star teammate Mike Trout on the shelf with a strained calf. Lagares stepped in to play 22 games in the month of May, slashing a respectable .276/.311/.397 through 58 at-bats. Lagares has thrived playing at Angel Stadium, posting a .832 OPS […]
David Fletcher Lacking Fantasy Appeal
Los Angeles Angels second baseman David Fletcher will try and raise his offensive game heading into the month of June. Fletcher has been bounced from the leadoff spot and posted a .626 OPS in the month of May. The versatile infielder is hitting a surprising .372 with runners in scoring position but is slugging only […]
Andrew Heaney Has 4.29 Road ERA
Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will take the mound Tuesday against the Giants in San Francisco. Heaney has been mediocre, at best, this season despite an impressive 11.06 K/9 rate.
