Rookies and 2017 newbies all around in this series. We’ve got Andrew Heaney (2017 newbie) facing Daniel Gossett (rookie) in game 1. Troy Scribner vs. Chris Smith (rookie and sort of newbie) in game 2, and Parker Bridwell in game 3. That makes Kendall Graveman the only pitcher in this series that pitched in 2016.
The last place A’s should be easy to beat right? Well, this last place A’s team just swept the Rangers - a team the Angels dropped 3 out of 4 games to.
