The Angels, currently standing one game below .500, have been competitive but are looking for more consistency from key players like Anthony Rendon. The team's offense is ranked 14th, averaging 4.69 runs per game, but their pitching has been subpar with a 4.88 ERA. Los Angeles will need to improve in order to climb in the rankings and remain competitive throughout the season.
