Los Angeles Angels: Future is Bright






After a shaky start my Angels are showing signs of a great season ahead. Their top two starters (Jered Weaver & Dan Haren) are proving that they are both “Aces” and can match up with any pitching duo in the MLB. They are also showing an improved offense even without one of their best players. Three rookie position players are starting and each of them are making a statement to stay in the majors. After today, there may be two rookie pitchers on the roster, one in the bullpen and one in the rotation. So overall, things are looking good with the young talent contributing early on and the veterans leading the way. The Angels still don’t have arguably their best player, Kendrys Morales, back from injury but his replacement Mark Trumbo (rookie) has played well. When Morales comes back they will get back a key part of their offense and defense. Due to injuries to two of their starting pitchers, the Angels called on 21 year old Tyler Chatwood again and this time he showed off his skills. He is just the latest rookie to be called on and he showed he can play at the major league level. When watching the an Angel game there are many young and new faces in the line-up but it is for the better and it just shows that the future is bright for the organization.
