It’s important to preface this with the fact that the Angels just played the Dodgers and the Rays for six and won four of them. All the while getting some disastrous bullpen performances, short starts, and unclutch hitting. This is a fairly impressive result.
Wilfredo Tovar has been with the team nine games, starting every single one of them. When he reaches base twice or garners two bases, the Angels lose. Without fail. When he doesn’t, they win. His success singlehandedly determines the outcome of that day’s game, and I will accept no other explanation.
