Los Angeles Angels
The Los Angeles Angels started their season with an unfortunate early road schedule, but managed to secure a win against the Baltimore Orioles in their last game thanks to an early home run by Taylor Ward. Brandon Drury has been a reliable offensive weapon for the team, while Mike Trout has had a slow start to the season after missing games due to injury last season. Taylor Ward, a 30-year old left fielder, has been a standout player for the team, hitting two home runs so far. Chase Silseth is set to start for the Angels, and despite a less than stellar performance in his last outing against the Marlins, he finished last season with a solid record. The team currently has a power ranking of 26, ranking 19th in offense and dead last in defense, and has a record of 1-2 so far this season.
