Miguel Sano

FA First Baseman #22

Angels released 1B Miguel Sanó.

Sanó has been cut loose to pursue other opportunities after going unclaimed on waivers. The 31-year-old slugger batted just .205/.295/.313 with two homers and six RBI in 95 plate appearances over 28 games for the Angels in his first stint back in the big leagues since 2022. He batted just .045 (1-for-22) with one homer in seven games after returning from the injured list back in late June following a two-month stint on the injured list.
Jo Adell

LAA Left Fielder #7

Jo Adell homered in the bottom of the eighth to supply all three Angels runs in a 3-2 win over the Mariners on Sunday.

Adell’s homer came off Austin Voth after Ryne Stanek left due to injury. He drove in five of the Angels’ 11 runs in the team’s three wins over the Mariners the last three days. Perhaps his seven-week slump is finally coming to an end, though now he’ll have to avoid the rust that comes with four days off. He finishes the first half at .190/.255/.399 in 291 plate appearance.
Carson Fulmer

LAA Starting Pitcher #41

Carson Fulmer tossed 4 2/3 hitless innings and struck out seven against the Mariners on Sunday.

This was supposed to be a spot start for Fulmer, but in his second big-league start since 2019, he made a real case for remaining in the rotation to start the second half. He’s allowed two runs and amassed a 17/2 K/BB ratio over 13 2/3 innings in his last six outings.
Roansy Contreras

LAA Relief Pitcher #57

Roansy Contreras worked a hitless ninth for his second career save Sunday against the Mariners.

Contreras would have started today if he hadn’t been so ineffective against the Rangers five days ago. Sent to the pen, he got a save opportunity and converted it on a day in which the Angels’ top three relievers were all down from having pitched both Friday and Saturday. He’ll likely be more of a middle reliever after the break.
Taylor Ward

LAA Right Fielder #3

Taylor Ward went 0-for-3 and struck out twice versus the Mariners on Sunday.

Ward is definitely ready for the break. He’s 6-for-49 with one RBI and 20 strikeouts in his last 13 games, dropping his OPS from .773 to .713, and he’s been stuck on 14 homers since June 25.
Christian Moore

LAA Second Baseman

Angels selected Tennessee 2B Christian Moore with the No. 8 selection of the 2024 MLB Draft.

Tennessee was college baseball’s best team, and it’s pretty easy to argue that Moore was that team’s best player with 34 homers and a 1.248 OPS over 72 games. The 6-foot-1 infielder generates easy power with his right-handed swing, and while he can occasionally chase, he’s shown he can be an assertive hitter with a swing that can punish baseballs to all parts of the field. He’s just an average runner, but there’s a chance he could be a double-digit stolen base player for good measure. Moore doesn’t have quite the offensive upside of the upper-echelon bats in this class, but he’s on that next tier, and should be an early draft pick in dynasty/keeper leagues.
Luis Guillorme

LAA Second Baseman #15

Luis Guillorme was scratched from Sunday’s lineup with back tightness.

It’s probably safe to call him day-to-day for now. Brandon Drury will make the start at third base instead.
Anthony Rendon

LAA Third Baseman #6

Anthony Rendon is not in Sunday’s lineup against the Mariners.

Rendon will get a rest in the final game before the break. Willie Calhoun will serve as the designated hitter and Luis Guillorme will be at the hot corner.
Jo Adell

LAA Left Fielder #7

Jo Adell went 2-for-3 with an RBI on Saturday, leading the Angels to a 2-1 victory over the Mariners.

It’s been a tough couple weeks for Adell, after showing some extremely promising signs at the outset of the year, as he’s batting .185 (17-for-92) with three homers and one steal over his last 30 games. He’s also struck out a whopping 29 times during that span. It’s possible he’ll never make a sustained breakthrough in the contact department, but he’s still capable of putting together hot stretches where he looks like one of the most impactful power/speed combo contributors in the fantasy landscape.
Carlos Estevez

LAA Relief Pitcher #53

Carlos Estévez fired a perfect ninth inning on Saturday against the Mariners to collect his 17th save of the season.

Estévez, who has reeled off 15 consecutive scoreless appearances dating back to May 21, has been the subject of persistent trade rumors over the last few weeks and figures to be dealt to a contender at the upcoming trade deadline. The 31-year-old righty has converted 17 of 20 save chances this season to accompany a solid 2.61 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 31/4 K/BB ratio across 31 innings (31 appearances). According to Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register it will likely be hard-throwing Ben Joyce taking over as the Angels’ primary stopper once Estévez is dealt.
