I’m back! Thanks to Jeffrey for filling in on these previews while I was soaking up some R&R in the South Pacific.
Thanks to MLB scheduling fun, the Angels play both their away and home series against the Twins over the span of 12 days. Last week the Angels dropped 2 of 3 games in the series, but did manage to score 15 runs. Offense? Not the main problem. The Twins scored 16 runs, besting the angels twice by a single run margin.
Nelson Cruz, destroyer of Angels pitching, is still on the IL and will sit this one out.
