Latest news and updates about the Angels
Okay, so technically relentless would be scoring in every inning, and the Braves only scored in five of the nine frames available to them, but hey — it worked just fine. The offense started early and didn’t stop until well past clobberin’ time, leading to an 8-2 victory over the Angels. Meanwhile, Grant Holmes did […]
The updated verdict is out for Los Angeles Angels’ Jorge Soler and Atlanta Braves’ Reynald López. Both players were initially set to receive a seven-game suspension following last night’s viral altercation, per Jeff Passan. However, after filing an appeal, less than an hour later, AJC Braves beat writer Chad Bishop reported that López had gotten […]
The Braves have been, perhaps disappointingly, even steven so far on their seven-game swing out West: they split a four-game set with the Diamondbacks, and then split the first two games of this series with the Angels. After some fisticuffs and go-for-the-throat bullpen management in a win last night, they have a chance to both […]
The Atlanta Braves evened the series on Tuesday night after a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels. Reynaldo López got the start. He allowed two runs, walked two, and struck out seven. Things were going relatively well, and then it got a bit punchy (literally). In the bottom of the fifth, benches cleared after […]
In what was an otherwise routine and mostly quiet game on Tuesday night between the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels, a big time brawl broke out between Braves starter Reynaldo Lopez and former World Series hero Jorge Soler. Let’s set the stage. Earlier in the game, Lopez hit Soler in the hand with a […]
Dude. The Atlanta Braves are currently up 4-2 on the Los Angeles Angels in the bottom of the fifth inning during the middle game of their three-game series in Anaheim. The Braves will have to go without starting pitcher Reynaldo López for the remainder of the contest after he got thrown out for getting into […]
Over the past few days, it certainly seems as if all the positive momentum that came from the Braves 17-run outburst last Friday has basically evaporated. The Braves have lost three straight, including last night’s 6-2 loss to the Angels. Chris Sale had one of the worst innings of his career and the Braves offense […]
In the top of the first inning, Drake Baldwin homered again to give the Braves an early 1-0 lead over the Angels. Baldwin’s incredible sophomore campaign has been something to behold. And that’s where the fun ended on Monday night. Jose Soriano absolutely cooked the Braves for eight innings, allowing just the one run on […]
The Atlanta Braves face off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in what looks to be a pitchers duel between the two staff aces. Chris Sale has only given up one run in his two starts, and José Soriano has yet to surrender an earned run this season in twelve innings. The Braves’ offense […]
The Atlanta Braves had a roller coaster ride of offense in Arizona, scoring seventeen runs in one game, but in the other two it was basically what seemed to be just Drake Baldwin carrying them. The offense is going to try and kick it back into gear against the Angels in another late game but […]
Good morning! A frustrating, extra-innings loss yesterday to the Los Angeles Angels capped off a tough away series for the Mariners. While a three-run home run by Cole Young was a highlight of the 7-8 defeat, the Mariners will look to put this series behind them and prepare to face the Texas Rangers. A three-game […]
Listen, I’m not saying it was destined, but you go up against a team called the Angels on Easter, and you’re probably gonna lose. A simple coincidence? Probably, but I think the much more likely scenario is that this game took place inside the halo for the Angels at the Big A. It’s no secret […]
Angels 8, Mariners 7 Reese’s eggs: Cole Young, .37 WPA Black jellybeans: José Ferrer, -.34 WPA Game thread comment of the day:
1974 The White Sox opened the season at home under freezing conditions versus the Angels and Nolan Ryan. Wilbur Wood started, which caused broadcaster Harry Caray to comment that the game was “The tortoise against the hare.” This time the hare won, as Ryan and the Angels got an easy 8-2 victory. The game did have its moments, however. […]
Angels 1, Mariners 0 Jo Adell on defense tonight: Emerson Hancock (+0.20 WPA) Jo Adell on defense every other night: Luke Raley (-.18 WPA) Game Thread Comment of the Day:
Here’s something I never thought I’d say: I am excited to watch Emerson Hancock pitch tonight. The Mariners look to win their first series of the season Saturday against the Angels. They won Friday’s opener 4-0 in a long, frustrating, 10-inning game that didn’t really get going until the end. The bats did eventually come […]
Good morning everyone and welcome to the weekend! The Mariners notched their first extra-innings win of the season yesterday in a 3-1 victory over the Angels thanks to strong pitching performances from Bryan Woo, Matt Brash, Andrés Muñoz, and Gabe Speier. It really is incredible to watch this M’s bullpen in action. Do you have […]
12 years before I was born, while Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were bemoaning broken glass, the Seattle Mariners were breaking bats. The M’s of 1982 were the club’s crowning achievement, a 76-86 assemblage that was, at the time and until 1987, by far the franchise’s most respectable showing. On a night where the […]
Seattle Mariners 3, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 1 Chicken katsu sliders from Marination: Brendan Donovan (+.07 WPA) Sweeping sliders from lefty pitchers against these Mariners: Julio Rodriguez (-.16 WPA) Game Thread Comment of the Day: We venerate and appreciate a dog who would’ve hated this game going long but we loved seeing be celebrated […]
J.P. Crawford is back in the lineup Friday as the Mariners begin their first road trip of the season. Crawford was activated from the injured list Thursday. He makes his 2026 debut in what very well may be his last season with the Mariners. Bryan Woo is on the mound and will look to build […]
We have a trade to talk about, folks — it’s not a big one but it’s a trade, nonetheless! In fact, the Braves have gone back to one of their most frequent trade partners (or at least it feels that way, as ComeBackTedTurner mentioned in the linked Feed post) for another deal: The Los Angeles […]
Well, that series against the Yankees exposed some of the lingering issues with the Mariners roster, as currently constructed. Left-handed pitching is going to be a huge problem for this extremely lefty-heavy lineup throughout the season, and there really isn’t much relief in sight — J.P. Crawford is back from his brief IL stint but […]
On an extremely cold and windy afternoon at Wrigley Field that really wasn’t suitable for baseball, Matthew Boyd looked like the Boyd of 2025 in getting to the sixth inning and striking out 10 Angels hitters. That, some solid relief and timely hitting by the Cubs led to a 6-2 victory and a series win […]
Go get ‘em, Matthew.
Wednesday notes… The Cubs lineup was not available at posting time. Please check BCB social media for the Cubs lineup. Angels lineup: Matthew Boyd, LHP vs. Yusei Kikuchi, LHP Matthew Boyd did not have a good Opening Day start. Nope, not at all. So let’s hope he’s flushed that one and moving on. Boyd has […]
