In the last five weeks, the Angels have made several moves to improve their roster and, they hope, show Shohei Ohtani that they are serious about winning.
Third baseman Mike Moustakas, rounding the bases after hitting a home run against the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 21, was acquired by the Angels five weeks ago.Cron and Grichuk were Angels first-round draft picks; Grichuk is best known around these parts as the guy they drafted immediately ahead of Trout.
Of the nine players in the Angels’ opening day lineup, six are on the injured list, including Trout and — for the third time this season — Anthony Rendon. Outfielder Taylor Ward, hit in the face by a pitch Saturday, was put on the 60-day injured list Sunday and is expected to be out for the season. For the Angels, without that prospect flow, patch jobs are the best they can do at the moment. The destination: the postseason, please, just an appearance in the postseason. To their credit, they are trying.
